Kriteria Tingkat Kematangan Buah Kelapa Sawit (Elaeis Guineensis Jacq.) Sebagai Indikator Siap Panen Ditinjau Dari Karakteristik Morfologis
This research aims to determine the morphological characteristics of palm oil as the ripe indicator of fruit harvesting. This research was conducted by survey method of 60 anthesis fruit bunches on the same day randomly selected from 7-year-old trees, then artificially pollinated. Observations began on days 115 to 185 after pollination (HSP) at 5 days intervals. The results showed that: Determination of the ripe of palm oil fruit harvest can use variables: fruit color, time after pollination, fruit bunch weight, fruit diameter, fruit mesocarp thickness, fresh fruit weight, fruit dry weight and fruit moisture content. The maximum total fat content of the Tenera palm oil fruit is 60,59% which is achieved at 170,76 HSP. The palm fruit is ripe if: the color of the fruit has changed beyond the dark reddish purple color, at 170,76 days after pollination, or the weight of the fruit bunch has reached 7.983,47 g, or the fruit diameter is 3,59 cm, fruit mesocarp thickness is 1,11 cm, or the average fresh weight per fruit of 21,9 g, or fruit dry weight is 17,15 g, and or when the fruit water content has reached 25,90%. All these morphological variables closely correlate to very close.
