    The Green Tigers Which Southeast Asian Companies Will Prosper in the New Age of Forest Conservation? UPDATE OCTOBER 2014 Which Southeast Asian companies will prosper in the new age of forest conservation? © DeanBirinyi / istockphoto.com THE GREEN TIGERS Which Southeast Asian companies will prosper in the new age of forest conservation? By Glenn Hurowitz Southeast Asia’s economies are roaring. The rise of the so-called “Asian tiger” economies has been one of the most profound developments in global business over the past half-century. But even as the region grows, the manner of its growth is imperiling its future prosperity. Too much of Asia’s growth has relied upon defor- estation and pollution. Instead of pursuing lasting development, many countries and companies in the region have favored “spreadsheet development” that prioritizes goosing national gross domestic prod- uct numbers at the expense of making a positive impact on the communities where it occurs. Southeast Asia is by no means unique in pursuing this model, but it is possibly the place where it is followed most energetically—and with the most visible consequences. Too many companies are still putting the region’s environment and economy at risk through continued deforestation and other irresponsible practices. But some countries and companies are choosing a different path. They are adapting to the revolutionized global market by evolving to ensure that their growth does not come at the expense of forests. These are the Green Tigers – and they are set to roar for decades to come. There is great urgency behind this corporate evolution: Deforestation for palm oil and paper plantations has turned the region into a tinderbox.

Short trunk height (THT) and compactness traits have become increasingly important to improve harvesting efficiency since the industry started to suffer yield losses due to labor shortages. Breeding populations with low THT and short frond length (FL) are actually available, such as Dumpy AVROS pisifera (DAV) and Gunung Melayu dura (GM). However, multiple trait stacking still remains a challenge for oil palm breeding, which usually requires 12–20 years to complete a breeding cycle. In this study, yield and height increment in the GM GM (GM-3341) and the GM DAV (GM-DAV-3461) crossing × × programs were evaluated and palms with good yield and smaller height increment were identified.

  • Kellogg Company Palm Oil Commitment January 2016
    Kellogg Company Palm Oil Commitment January 2016 Overview Palm oil continues to be an ingredient of particular focus for Kellogg Company in our responsible sourcing efforts. Palm oil is grown and produced in Southeast Asia and is widely used in foods, soaps and cosmetics. The rapid expansion of palm oil production has been associated with human rights violations and the destruction of tropical forest habitats and peat lands. Although Kellogg uses a very small amount of palm oil globally, we have been working since 2009 to improve the sustainability and responsible sourcing of our palm oil. All of the palm oil we use is sourced through a combination of the Roundtable of Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) Certified Segregated supply chain, RSPO Mass Balance mixed-source supply chain and the purchase of GreenPalm certificates. Kellogg is committed to working with our global palm oil suppliers to source fully traceable palm oil to known and certified sources that are environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable, in adherence to the following principles (see our Global Supplier Code of Conduct for additional details on our expectations): • Protect Forests • No development of High Carbon Stock forests and High Conservation Value areas • No burning in the preparation of new plantings, re-plantings or any other developments • Progressively reduce greenhouse gas emissions on existing plantations • Adherence to all relevant national laws, as well as RSPO or equivalent certification criteria • Protect peat lands • No new development
