Abstract
Oil palm was first introduced to Malaysia by the British colonial government in the 1870s. In 1912, a French writer imported a few bags of seeds into Malaysia, supported by a Belgian agronomist who had developed the first oil palm plantation in Indonesia. From here, Malaysia's first commercial oil palm plantation was developed in 1917 at Tennamaram Estate, Selangor, replacing an unsuccessful coffee estate (Reuters 2009).
