Job Description |
||
My main job function is to provide sound agronomic advices on oil palm and cocoa to our Principals and their estates, and our advisory clients’ estates. Towards this end, I design, lead and/or conduct research on cocoa and oil palm agronomy, soil and plant nutrition, nutrient dynamics, soil and water conservation, and 3D model and visualization of oil palm growth and production. I also lead the team in soil survey and feasibility study. As Section Head for Information Management Section, I am responsible for strategic data and information management, development of a decision support system for plantation crop management, statistical and mathematical data analysis, applications of remote sensing, GIS and GPS in plantation management, spatial data analysis and interpretation, and web page development. I was also a consultant to Cenipalma on fertilizer recommendation system of oil palm. My overall mission is to assist the estate management achieves and maintains the site yield potentials at the lowest cost possible through ever better and latest management practices, taking into account the environment and land ecology.
|
||
Key Research Interests |
||
My main interests are in soil and plant nutrition of plantation tree crops and its dynamics. I am also interested in the general agronomy and management of plantation tree crops. The research group uses mathematical, statistical and computational methods to understand the spatio-temporal relationships between the various agronomic and management factors affecting soil nutrient supply, plant nutrition, fertilizer use efficiency and fertilizer requirements. Tools such as remote sensing and GIS, and methods such as pattern recognition and artificial intelligience are also employed to investigate the above and develop techniques for large-scale assessments of the plant and management performances. The team has recently embarked on the study of water dynamics and water use efficiency in oil palm ecosystem, and the importance and dynamics of living green manure (and probably organic matter) in plantation tree crop management. |
||
Lately, I have been involved in the measurement of greenhouse gases from forest, sago and oil palm ecosystems to further understand the impact of anthropogenic agricultural activities on the potential global climate change. |
||
I welcome collaborative research in any of the above areas in tropical tree crops. |

Deceased Staff: Quah Yin Thye
We extend our condolence to the family of the late Mr. Quah Yin Thye who passed away on 8-12-2002.
Quah Yin Thye
(with his teak trees)
3 Feb. 1956 – 8 Dec. 2002
On 8 December, Quah Yin Thye passed away without regaining consciousness for 60 days after being assaulted and robbed in Kluang on 9 October. He was walking back alone to his hotel after having dinner with his colleagues when he was attacked.
Quah as we normally called him was born in Alor Star. He completed his primary and secondary education at Sultan Abdul Hamid Primary School and Sultan Abdul Hamid College respectively. He obtained his Bachelor of Forestry Science from the University of Canterbury, New Zealand in 1979 and a Diploma in Business Administration from the same university in 1980 . Quah started his career in the oil palm industry as an agronomist with Lam Soon Management Services from 1981 to 1988. After a short break in New Zealand , he joined Applied Agricultural Research Sdn. Bhd. (AAR) in 1989 and was a Senior Research Officer with AAR at his untimely demise. In 1997 he was awarded a Master of Science from Universiti Pertanian Malaysia for a comprehensive work done on the growth and flowering of Asystasia gangetica subsp. micranthaculminating in positive control strategies for this noxious weed.
Another of Quah’s major contributions to AAR and the Industry was his work on the use of plastic sheets for mulching immature oil palms (AA+ Mulch tm ). He was still working on refining and extending the use of AA+ Mulch tm before he passed on. Quah was also in charge of the research program on plantation forestry, his original area of specialization. The numerous impressive blocks of teak, mahogany and sentang that he had planted all over Peninsular and East Malaysia will now be memorials of his effort and hard work in this field.
As a colleague, Quah was very conscientious and most pleasant but would accept no nonsense from anybody. As a friend, he was always cheerful and helpful but careful with the company he kept. As a father, his only child, Sarah meant the world to him and the song “Sara” by Starship was his anthem for her. As a husband he was very faithful and endearing to Peggy. Basically Quah was a family man and his family came above everything else.
For a man who was so fit and healthy and in the prime of his life, the manner of Quah’s demise was not only very cruel and tragic, but also unnecessary. His very strong character, both physically and mentally was reflected in the way he fought for his life whilst in the hospital ICU. To Peggy who has shown great strength and courage throughout the agonizing two months that Quah was in a coma, please remain strong. We offer you, Sarah and Quah’s brothers and families our most heartfelt sympathy. We share your great loss as we have also lost a very good field researcher, colleague and most of all a friend who will be missed very dearly. The numerous messages of condolences that we have been besieged with from Quah’s friends in the Industry and before that the many phone calls that came in to enquire about his condition while in the ICU shows that we are not alone in facing this sad loss.
On a parting note, below is a poem from Chiu Sheng Bin in memory of Quah Yin Thye:
I am of the nature to decay, I have not gone beyond decay
I am of the nature to be diseased, I have not gone beyond disease
I am of the nature to die, I have not gone beyond death
All that is mine, both beloved and pleasing, will change and vanish
I am the owner of my actions, born and supported by my actions
Whatever I do, whether good or evil . of that I shall be the heir
Tan,C.C.
Deceased Staff: Ho Yuk Wah
We regret to announce the sudden demise of a dear friend and colleague Madam Ho Yuk Wah recently. The International Oil Palm fraternity has lost a valuable member who had contributed so much to the industry particularly advances in Tissue Culture Research and Technology. On behalf of Mdm. Ho’s family, we thank our friends from all over the world for their kind thoughts and expressions of condolences.

As an Agronomist, my main duty is to provide agronomic advices on oil palm, cocoa and coconut to our two Principals; Boustead Plantations Bhd and Kuala Lumpur Kepong Bhd, and also to our clients. I have more than twenty five years’ experience in the nutrition, pest and disease control and planting practices in these crops. Occasionally, I also carry out economic and feasibility studies on the three plantation crops. As a Principal Research Officer, I am responsible for the research programmes undertaken by the Techno-Economic and Management Section. The research programmes cover mechanization/automation, worker productivity improvement, development of worker and manager-friendly techniques, treatment and utilization of palm oil mill by-products, precision agriculture, land clearing, drainage and economic studies.
|
||
Key Research Interests
|
||
My current research interests are: 1) zero-waste zero-discharge system of treating palm oil mill effluent (POME) and empty fruit bunch (EFB), 2) detaching fruits from fresh fruit bunches (FFB) and sending only the loose fruits to the mills, 3) zero-burn techniques of clearing oil palm for replanting and their impacts on the replanted palms, 4) automation of FFB weighing in the field and transmitting data to the plantation office wirelessly for the production of yield map, crop production and harvester performance reports, payroll and other reports required by the plantation managers and agronomists, 5) to integrate a controller to a local fertilizer spreader for variable rate application of fertilizer on the go, and 6) mechanization of FFB evacuation and application of fertilizer/EFB.
