Malaysia/BorneoWORLD’S HIGHEST RATE BIOMASS PRODUCTION
Oil Palm in HUMID TROPICS produces
8-10 times more oil per hectare compared to Soybean or Rapeseed in
TEMPERATE CLIMATES“Due to high PHOTOSYNTHETIC rates
resulting in ten times higher CO2
absorption and oxygen emission rates than observed with soybean”
Ref: Yusof Basiron, Eur.J.Lipid Sci. Tecnol 109 (2007) 287-295

With Nuclear Power abundant cheap desalinated water
Deep Tropical animal production suitable for dry tropics, even deserts
Huge increase in world production of milk, beef and lamb
Underdeveloped counties can become self-sufficient and achieve
western standard of human nutrition
