Abstract
Malaysia, the first oil palm producer in the world, has an organizational structure of support entities for the development of oil palm cultivation, which allows advancing the oil palm industry's great potential in all the fields of research and development. The technical developments in areas such as breeding and genetics, biotechnology, agronomy, crop protection, mechanization of plantations, uses of the palm oil, health and nutrition, oleo chemicals, are presented, among others. With MOPB's research strategies and developments, palm oil is projected as the dominating vegetable oil of the new century. Malasia, primer productor de palma de aceite en el mundo, tiene una estructura organizacional de entidades de apoyo al desarrollo del cultivo de la palma de aceite que permiten avanzar en todos los campos de investigación y desarrollar el gran potencial de la industria de la palma de aceite. Se presentan los desarrollos técnicos en áreas como fitomejoramiento y genética, biotecnología, agronomía, protección del cultivo, mecanización de plantaciones, usos del aceite de palma, salud y nutrición, oleoquímicos, entre muchos otros. Con las estrategias y desarrollos de investigación del MOPB, el aceite de palma se proyecta como el aceite vegetal dominante del nuevo siglo.
