The disc is the area around the plant at a distance of approximately 1.5 m . In the stages of oil palm cultivation , the disc must be maintained to keep it in a state free from weeds . In addition to reducing competition for nutrients between plants and
weeds , maintenance of the dish is also important to avoid damage to
crops due to the negative effects of weeds and also reduce evaporation ,
as well as supporting other plant maintenance activities , and
facilitate the monitoring and harvesting activities in the oil phase of
TM .Maintenance
is done by clearing weeds around the plants contained both mechanically
as cleared , and hoe , and are chemically with herbicides . For plants that are less than 3 years old , disk maintenance should be done mechanically . It aims to avoid damage to the leaves , because the use of herbicides is very risky damaging young leaves of plants . Maintenance performed by disc rotation t 1-2 months . In the rainy season the rotation of the disk maintenance done over the
meeting because weed growth will be faster than the dry season .Legume
Cover Crop ( LCC ) which grow vines in gawangan addition to providing
many advantages for plants , its existence also uncontrolled growth may
result in losses as tendrils creeping toward the disc and the stem of
the plant to convolve palm trees . This
situation will make it difficult for other maintenance activities such
as weed control , maintenance of disc ,cutting shoots and castration , as
well as fertilization . Maintenance LCC absolutely needs to be done to avoid it . Maintenance is done by controlling the direction of growing shoots that do not propagate in the direction of the disc plants . LCC
tendrils creeping toward him gar disc should not be changed into the
disc area , while for the vine that has spread in the area of the disc
or even twisted palm plants need to be trimmed .
