RDWG Technique for Determination of Complex Permittivity and Moisture Content of Oil Palm Fruits
Close relationship between oil content and moisture content [Ariffin et al., 1990, Khalid & Abbas, 1992] suggests the possibility of using moisture content as a parameter to gauge fruit ripeness. It is found [Khalid & Abbas, 1992] that the amount of moisture content is higher at early stage...

| Summary: | Close relationship between oil content and moisture content [Ariffin et al., 1990, Khalid & Abbas, 1992] suggests the possibility of using moisture content as a parameter to gauge fruit ripeness. It is found [Khalid & Abbas, 1992]
that the amount of moisture content is higher at early stage of fruit development. Excess water is reduced in the ripe fruit as the oil accumulates in the mesocarp. |
