There was a significant increase in report submissions in tandem with the increased number of members in the RSPO, thus continuing the ascending inclination of compliancy towards the requirement to submit the ACOP reports. For this year, as per the Code of Conduct, only Ordinary and Affiliate Members that joined RSPO before the first of June 2012 were obligated to submit their respective ACOP reports. Members from all seven stakeholder categories were required to submit their ACOP 2012/2013 reports with the questions varying for each category to appropriately reflect the actual activities, distinctive contributions and level of commitment of each organization towards sustainable palm oil. The Time-Bound Plan (TBP) has always been an essential aspect within the ACOP process which will enable us to gauge the commitment by key stakeholders towards 100 percent RSPO certified sustainable palm oil, providing an indication on the pace of the RSPO toward achieving our vision of transforming markets to make sustainable palm oil the norm.

    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.

The increase is the result of six company groups with Gerard Rijk, Profundo large refining capacity adopting NDPE policies. • Because of weak implementation, effective NDPE coverage falls to 72 percent. Due to lagging transparency and grievance processes, three of the eleven largest refiners in Indonesia and Malaysia remain part of the leakage market. • The seven largest leakage refiners in Indonesia and Malaysia are FGV Holdings, Permata Hijau Group, Salim Group, BEST Group, Tunas Baru Lampung, Darmex Agro and the Wings Group. In India, the world’s largest importer of crude palm oil, there are three leakage refiners: Emami Agrotech, Patanjali Ayurved and Gokul Agro Resources.

    International Plant Nutrition Institute Regional Office • Southeast Asia Date: March 31, 2016 Page: 1 of 88 New Entries to IPNI Library as References Roberts T. L. 2008. Improving Nutrient Use Efficiency. Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry, 32:177-182. Reference ID: 21904 Notes: #21904e Abstract: Public interest and awareness of the need for improving nutrient use efficiency is great, but nutrient use efficiency is easily misunderstood. Four indices of nutrient use efficiency are reviewed and an example of different applications of the terminology show that the same data set might be used to calculate a fertilizer N efficiency of 21% or 100%. Fertilizer N recovery efficiencies from researcher managed experiments for major grain crops range from 46% to 65%, compared to on-farm N recovery efficiencies of 20% to 40%. Fertilizer use efficiency can be optimized by fertilizer best management practices that apply nutrients at the right rate, time, and place. The highest nutrient use efficiency always occurs at the lower parts of the yield response curve, where fertilizer inputs are lowest, but effectiveness of fertilizers in increasing crop yields and optimizing farmer profitability should not be sacrificed for the sake of efficiency alone. There must be a balance between optimal nutrient use efficiency and optimal crop productivity. Souza L. F. D.and D. H. Reinhardt. 2015. Pineapple. Pages 179-201 IPO. Reference ID: 21905 Notes: #21905e Abstract: Pineapple is one of the tropical fruits in greatest demand on the international market, with world production in 2004 of 16.1 million mt. Of this total, Asia produces 51% (8.2 million mt), with Thailand (12%) and the Philippines (11%) the two most productive countries.

  • Bumitama Agri Ltd. MEDIUM RISK
    INITIATING COVERAGE 15 October 2014 Bumitama Agri Ltd. MEDIUM RISK Oil palm plantation ISIN: SG2E67980267| SGX: P8Z | Bloomberg: BAL:SP BUMITAMA AGRI LTD. MEDIUM RISK Summary Warding off Sustainability Risk This Chain Reaction Research (CRR) report analyzes the financial risk profile of Bumitama Agri Ltd. (BAL:SP), a rapidly growing palm oil company. We looked at sustainability risks associated with the group’s 204,000 hectare (ha) land bank in Kalimantan, Indonesia – an area that the company identifies as available for plantation development. Detailed analysis of 16 of the group’s 18 plantation subsidiaries shows that Bumitama has been involved in significant deforestation, peatland development and legal irregularities since the group entered the plantation business in 1998. Continuation of such practices places the group at serious risk of losing its two major customers. Wilmar International and Golden Agri-Resources (GAR) together purchase approximately 90 percent of Bumitama’s palm oil supply. As of early 2014, both companies have adopted stringent sourcing policies that disqualify third-party suppliers who engage in deforestation, peat development and social exploitation. In the months since, Bumitama has taken several steps that may mitigate some of the worst risks. In this report, CRR reviews how Bumitama accumulated its sustainability risk profile over the years, and assesses the potential financial consequences should the group fail to duly address its sustainability risk exposure. An earlier version of this report was sent to Bumitama Agri for review, and this final report integrates information from its response. Contested Land Bank: 41% At the core of our Sustainability Risk Assessment (SRA) is an analysis of how much of a company’s land bank may be “contested land” – i.e.

  • PRINCIPLES and CRITERIA for Sustainable Palm Oil Production 2018
    RSPO Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil PRINCIPLES AND CRITERIA For Sustainable Palm Oil Production 2018 The Indonesia National Interpretation 1 Draft 1 – National Interpretation RSPO Principles & Criteria 2018 Preface Sustainable palm oil production comprises legal, economically viable, environmentally appropriate and socially beneficial management and operations. This is delivered through the application of the following set of Principles and Criteria ("P&C") herein and the accompanying Indicators and Guidance. The first set of RSPO P&C, Indicators and Guidance (RSPO P&C 2007) have been applied since November 2007. These had been subject to trial implementation from November 2005 to November 2007 and, in a number of countries, to a subsequent process of National Interpretation process (NI). After five years of application by RSPO members, RSPO P&C 2007 were reviewed in 2012-2013, leading to the RSPO P&C 2013. After a five years of application, RSPO P&C 2013 were reviewed and revised in 2017-2018 by the RSPO Principles and Criteria Review Task Force. The objective of each review and revision is to improve the relevance and effectiveness of the Principles and Criteria for RSPO members, and in achieving the shared vision and mission to make sustainable palm oil the norm. More specifically, this most recent revision sought to align the Principles and Criteria with the RSPO Theory of Change (ToC) and increase accessibility by making so these Principles and Criteria are more relevant and practical. The review process went beyond International Social and Environmental Accreditation and Labelling (ISEAL) best practices, including two public consultation periods of 60 days each, and with 17 physical consultation workshops in 10 countries around the world, as well as 6 physical Task Force meetings.
