Item Embargo Greenhouse gas emissions during plantation stage of palm oil-based biofuel production addressing different land conversion scenarios in Malaysia(Springer, 2017) Faradiella Mohd Kusin; Nurul Izzati Mat Akhir; Ferdaus Mohamat-Yusuff; Muhamad AwangThe environmental impacts with regard to agro-based biofuel production have been associated with the impact of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In this study, field GHG emissions during plantation stage of palm oil-based biofuel production associated with land use changes for oil palm plantation development have been evaluated.Item Embargo Nitrous oxide emission from nitrogen fertiliser application in oil palm plantation of different stages(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd, 2016) Faradiella Mohd Kusin; Nurul Izzati Mat Akhir; Ferdaus Mohamat-Yusuff; Muhamad AwangThe release of nitrous oxide (N2O) from agricultural activities contributes to the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. In this study, the amount of nitrogen fertiliser used in an oil palm plantation of different stages (immature and mature) was estimated. Data of fertilising scheme at the oil palm plantation for oil palms varying in age (planted between 1986 and 2009) was used. Estimation of nitrous oxide emissions and the resulting CO2-equivalent (CO2-eq) emissions were calculated for each category of the oil palm.
