Leading producers of palm oil and palm kernel in Indonesia.

Primary business activities are cultivating oil palm trees, as well as harvesting and processing fresh palm fruit bunches into palm oil and palm kernel, which we sell to refineries in Indonesia.

This can help reduce costs of fertilizers as well as limit the amount of runoff that can accumulate

2) Can properly manage animal wastes. This can be done by streamside fencing, which keep livestocks and their wastes out of farm streams and other areas outside of the farm. In return, this will reduce pollution and erosion, as well as reduce the potential spread of waterborne diseases. 

3) Prevent erosion of soil which can damage other infrastructure as well as the environment. Continuous no-till (also known as conservation tillage) reduces erosion and runoff by minimizing soil disturbances. This practice also builds the soil's health and its ability to hold moisture. Traditional plowing and tilling, on the other hand, disturbs the soil, leaving it unprotected and allowing more erosion to occur

Minimal use of chemicals for insecticide & pesticide

Biological/natural remedy

• Planted plants to attract natural predators of pests (eg Turnera Ulmifolia and Casia Cobanensis)
• Uses Barn Owls for rat control

Example: 

• Turnera attracts insects like Sycanus that consumes catepillars that eat the leaves of the palm trees

Peatland is defined as soil containing greater than 65% organic matter with depth of more than 50cm.
