Asian Agri<\/a> kicked off the oil palm replanting programme with\u00a0smallholders and government officials in a replanting ceremony on 20 April 2016.<\/p>\n

135 members of the Mulus Rahayu Cooperative for smallholders had the honours of being the first palm oil smallholders in the country to receive replanting funds from the Indonesia Government.<\/p>\n

This was especially significant as\u00a0Asian Agri is\u00a0the\u00a0corporate partner to\u00a0these Plasma smallholders, having also guided them to achieving\u00a0certification from RSPO and ISCC.<\/p>\n

The Indonesia Palm Oil Estate Fund Agency (BPDPKS<\/a>) disbursed replanting funds totaling IDR 6.75 billion (USD 510,000) on behalf of the government to the smallholders.<\/p>\n

Asian Agri\u2019s Managing Director Kelvin Tio said this is a successful example of strong public-private partnership in Indonesia.<\/p>\n

With almost three decades experience of smallholder collaboration, most of whom are under the Plamsa programme, Asian Agri has played a pivotal role in improving smallholder livelihoods.<\/p>\n

The palm oil producer will continue to support the replanting programme, covering 2,402 hectares of smallholder plantations in 2016 and 4,000 hectares in Riau and Jambi in 2017.<\/p>\n

Presiding over the replanting ceremony, BPDPKS President Director Bayu Krisnamurthi <\/a>said that multi-stakeholder involvement remains important to the oil palm replanting programme, and that continuous collaboration between various parties is required to effectively manage sustainable palm oil plantations.<\/p>\n
