Soil physico-chemical properties and palm nutrient concentrations in smallholder oil palm plantations, Perak, Malaysia, 2019

This dataset contains information on soil physico-chemical characteristics and palm nutrient concentrations collected in 2019 across twenty-five smallholder oil palm farms in Perak, Malaysia. Leaf and rachis were sampled from 3 palms within each plot. Soils were sampled to 30cm depth in the palm circle of the same 3 palms and the adjacent inter-row area. These data were collected to assess the soil condition and nutritional status of oil palms across smallholder farms. This information was used to advise on best agronomic practice. The work was supported by the Natural Environment Research Council (Grant No. 355 NE/R000131/1).
