Not much different from the shell characters from other types of coconut fruit in general. Where the skin always has a contour that emphasizes the hard side. The opposite of the contents of the fruit. This serves as a protector of the palm kernel flesh from bacteria, insects or pests.

Palm oil fruit skin will definitely experience a transformation of color patterns. Starting from the color of the fruit color at a young age, stepping into the almost mature period until the time is ready for harvest (ripe). The color pattern is the green phase where the fruit is still very young. The reddish orange indicates the phase towards early maturity. Brownish maroon red as a phase of almost perfect maturity. And finally the dark brown blackish indicates the phase ready to be harvested.
