      abstract = {In the 1960s, Malaysia planted oil palm on a large scale.  In the 1970s, it became the world's largest producer and  exporter of palm oil. To further explore the development  prospects of the oil palm industry in Malaysia, this paper  first introduced the development of oil palm in Malaysia,  and analyzed the world's share of Malaysian oil palm  harvested area, production, yield during 1980 and 2016. The  results showed that the oil palm harvested area in Malaysia  reached the peak value 5.23 million ha in 2013; the yield  of oil palm fruit reached the peak value 98.34 million t in  2015; the yield of oil palm fruit fluctuated between 14-20  t/ha; the ratio of  Malaysian oil palm yield to world oil  palm production reached its peak 51.99% in 1989. Therefore,  Malaysia should update the old oil palm plantation. The  development of oil palm harvested area and yield has  reached the peak value, it is difficult to increase the  harvested area. The proportion of Malaysian oil palm  industry to the world oil palm industry is constantly  declining. In future, the per unit area yield of Malaysian  fresh oil palm fruit is expected to reach a new peak, and  fresh oil palm fruit will exceed 20 t/ha. },
