Oil Palm Fertilizer Guide by Palm Age

Parich Fertilizer is the specialized nutrient solution for oil palm that guarantees continuous yields and high oil content using American “No Filler” technology.

Transform your plantation into a sustainable income generator. Parich Fertilizer eliminates the common problem of “Yield Gaps” (seasonal shortages) by providing a concentrated, long-lasting nutrient supply.

Why Parich Creates "Million-Baht" Plantations

Oil palms are hungry feeders. Standard fertilizers fade too fast, causing yield gaps. Parich delivers consistent nutrition, keeping your palms productive all year round.

Key Benefits of Parich for Oil Palm

Stimulates deep root systems for superior nutrient uptake. This ensures a "Continuous Harvest" (No Yield Gaps), keeping bunches coming even during stress periods.
Prevents nitrogen loss. Your palms stay dark green and healthy, showing zero signs of nitrogen deficiency (no yellow fronds).
Stop buying dirt. Parich gives you 100% concentrated nutrients in every bag, maximizing your Return on Investment
Formulated with Sulfur, Magnesium, and essential Boron. This trio ensures perfect pollination, heavy bunches, and maximum oil extraction rates.
Oil Palm Fertilizer Application Schedule

StageFormulaRate
Planting – 1 YearStart of Planting: Use Parich Pagro (Organic) at the bottom of the hole to make the soil loose and retain water.

After Planting: Apply Parich Ton-Mai Formula 20–3–3 or 27–12–6		Parich Pagro: 1 kg / tree

Parich Ton-Mai: 300–500 g / tree applied every 3 months
1 – 3 YearsApply Parich Ton-Mai Formula 27–12–6

Alternate with Formula 15–15–15 		500–700 g / tree applied every 3 months
3 – 4 YearsApply Parich Ton-Mai Formula 13–6–27 or 13–5–331–2 kg / tree applied every 3 months
4 Years & UpApply Parich Ton-Mai Formula 13–6–27 or 13–5–33 2–3 kg / tree applied every 3 months

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: How is Parich Ton-Mai Formula 13-5-33+1MgO+0.3B different from Formula 14-7-35?

A: Formula 13-5-33+1MgO+0.3B is coated with Nitro and Power, making it superior to 14-7-35.
  • It contains Magnesium (Mg), a secondary nutrient that aids efficient photosynthesis.
  • It contains Boron (B), a micronutrient essential for pollen development and root absorption—both of which are highly required by oil palms.
  • The Nitro and Power coating enhances nutrient efficiency, stimulates biological processes, promotes growth, and increases tolerance to stress (e.g., drought). It is a complete solution in one formula.

Q: If the palm has a "Yield Gap" (No bunches/Aborted inflorescence), which formula should be used, and what nutrients need to be added?

A: A "Yield Gap" (Khad Kor) is usually caused by a deficiency in Potassium (K) and Boron (B).
  • You should use a fertilizer formula high in K (e.g., 13-5-35+1MgO+0.3B coated with Nitro and Power).
  • Add Boron (B), which is critical for flower and fruit development.
  • Magnesium (Mg) deficiency can also cause the palm to be unhealthy.

Q: What causes Frond Fracture (bending/breaking of leaves)? Is it a nutrient surplus or deficiency?

A: Frond fracture is mostly NOT caused by nutrient deficiency, but rather by:
  1. Rhinoceros Beetle: They attack the fronds, biting the tip, middle, or base. Damage at the middle or base causes the frond to snap.
  2. Water Stress: Especially if there is a water shortage for more than 3 months, symptoms will show clearly.
  3. Ganoderma Disease: Caused by fungi attacking the palm trunk, causing lower fronds to fracture and hang down, while new shoots fail to unfurl. This persists year-round.

Q: How should I fertilize different soil types for continuous yield?

A:
  • Sandy Soil: Apply fertilizer more frequently in smaller amounts to reduce leaching.
  • Clay Soil: Can apply larger amounts per application.
  • Acidic/Peat Soil: Should apply Lime (e.g., Dolomite) to adjust pH and use fertilizers high in Mg and K.
  • Key Principle: Regardless of soil type, Magnesium and Boron must be applied regularly.
