Numerous studies have focused primarily on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from peatlands, constituting 20% of total OP area in the two largest OP producing countries, Indonesia and Malaysia. Few studies have investigated the potential for reducing GHG emissions in OP plantations. Strategies to reduce emissions and sequester carbon must consider how different practices affect production and the environment. Understanding the spatial distribution of GHG intensity and how the environment affects GHG intensity is therefore key to sustainable oil palm production.GHG intensity was used as a metric to map the potential for sustainable OP plantations. GHG intensity represents the GHG emissions / removals (ton C ha-1) per unit of oil palm yields (ton ha-1). The approach for analysing the change in GHG emissions/ removals, referred to as the IPCC tier 1 method, is based on changes in soil organic carbon due to C and N emissions in drained peatlands and the associated change in aboveground biomass due to land use change. Changes in GHG intensity were investigated spatially for a case study in an industrial OP plantation located in Riau Province, Indonesia, from 2015 to 2019. Linear regression was used to analyse the relationships between GHG intensity and agri-environmental variables including NDVI, NPP, GPP, evapotranspiration, soil moisture in the root zone, soil moisture in deeper layer, C and N emissions from organic soils, and soil organic carbon (SOC).The results show that around 90% of the new oil palm plantations in 2019 were converted from timber plantation, swamp scrubland, and bare land in 2015. Consequently, biomass growth from land use change acted as a carbon sink in this period. However, drained organic soils contributed significantly to GHG emissions. The change in GHG intensity in OP plantation in this study varied spatially from emitting (0.19 to 4.10 Ton C eq Ton-1 yields) to removing the GHG (0.23 to 2.40 Ton C eq Ton-1 yields). Among the environmental variables, NDVI and soil moisture showed the strongest relationship with GHG emissions/ removals (R2 = 0.23, p value = < 2.2e-16) and yields (R2 = 0.2 p value = < 2.2e-16) in OP plantations.These initial findings are advantageous for spatially identifying potential OP plantations that remove or emit GHG. Understanding the relationship between GHG emissions/removals and yields to environment variables provides insight into monitoring and enhancing OP sustainability, both from production and environmental perspectives. Future work will examine non-linear approaches to better model this relationship.

Root architecture spread horizontally and vertically which each consist of primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary downward root. The oil palm root observation with variation of crop stage and soil type showed that the root of oil palm plant year 2008 on spodosols soil spread along 650 cm horizontally from the trunk and penetrate downward in range of 9-28 cm vertically. Planted in the same type of soil, the root of oil palm plant year 2004 spread along 650 cm horizontally and reached to downward in a larger range from 3 to 57 cm vertically. As a comparison, the root architecture of oil palm on inceptisols soil established the range much greater vertically than the previous. The root of oil palm plant year 2008 spread along 640 cm horizontally and penetrate downward in range of 52-90 cm vertically. With the variation of crop age, the root of oil palm plant year 2003 spread along 650 cm horizontally and reached to downward in a larger range from 150 to 200 cm vertically. Based on this study, root architecture of oil palm was varied and need to be detailed. The precise root architecture of oil palm allows a better understanding on hydrological properties of oil palm root particularly which is cultivated on soil type vulnerable to drought. Referring to this root architecture, it was enable to develop the study on early drought detection of oil palm to optimise production and towards oil palm sustainability.

One of the problems is the lack of capacity in the drainage system in a residential area. This paper will analyze the drainage system based on the capacity in one of the residential clusters. The method for the drainage system performance in hydrology analysis was carried out with Log Person, and the return period for rainfall duration is ten years (R10) for hydraulic analysis using drainage system modeling with EPA – SWMM 5.1. The result based on hydrological is the precipitation for flood forecasting is 159.79 mm. It is found that the drainage capacity is filled in downstream of the main drain with a maximum discharge of 2.726 m3/s and secondary drains with a maximum discharge of 0.624 m3/s. Improvements were made to resolve the insufficiency of the existing channels by running two different scenarios: (1) Re-design the dimensions of the main and secondary channels, (2) Implement a detention pond, as well ...

This research employed sap flow technique using thermal dissipation probes (TDP), compared to Penman-Monteith equation as the benchmark. Water utilization by plants was studied through evapotranspiration, to investigate their water footprint and water productivity. Field study was carried out in a 17 year old oil palm plantation in Siak, Riau, Indonesia. Sap flow measurement was carried out on the 17th frond over sapric peat soil during 7th January - 18th March 2019. Water used from 19th oil palm was 40.97±6.63 L day−1 equals to 0.51±0.083 mm day−1 (mean ±SD). While, estimation based on Penman-Monteith equation was 286.3 ± 64.078 L day−1 equals to 3.58±0.80 mm day−1 (mean ±SD). Total accumulated water from Penman-Monteith equation (286.3 L day−1) was considerably higher than the one from sap flow measurement (41 L day−1). The result showed that water footprint ...

The objectives of the study were to estimate whether annual variations of soil type and yields significantly effects for the oil palm water footprint. The data from three types of soil (spodosol, inceptisol, ultisol) were collected from an oil palm plantation in Pundu village, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. To perform the water footprint analysis we utilize water balance accounting equations via application Cropwat 8.0. From that, we determine the crop irrigation scheduling to compute the blue, green, and grey water footprint of oil palm fresh fruit bunch in the area. Our analysis found that the actual evapotranspiration of spodosol and inceptisol have the same value: 1242 mm/year whilst ultisol is 1239 mm/year.

Therefore, it requires a specific information about the palm oil performance regarding the water balance system that affect the water consumption through the plant root water uptake. However, the prediction of root water uptake distribution is still a challenge. Another method to investigate the soil water dynamics under the plant root system is through the numerical simulations that are widely use to assess the soil water flow of the plant. In alignment with the idea of promoting the sustainable palm oil plantation, the investigation of root water uptake and water content under oil palm tree is highly demanding. As an introduction, through this study, it is find of interest to simulate the root water uptake and water content pattern of oil palm tree using the 2D simulation soil-water flow.

The impact is the emergence of various issues and opinions regarding the high environmental damage caused by excessive use of water by the crops. The water footprint scenario can be used to explain the usage of water for the oil palm. This is defined as the volume of water used to obtain one ton of fresh fruit bunches (FFB) in m3 yield-1 unit. The water footprint includes the green (water from precipitation), blue (water from surface and ground water resources) and grey water footprints (water used to dissolve fertilizers, pesticides and other chemical compounds). Based on these issues, this study was conducted to obtain the value of oil palm water footprint, in the case study area in Pundu, Central Borneo. Data used include climate, FFB production and the use of fertilizers and pesticides. The results show that the water footprint of oil palm is 1002.1 m3 ton-1 with the following plantation co...
