MSPO assistance for smallholders increased

MPOB director general Datuk Dr Ahmad Parveez Ghulam Kadir said the implementation of the MSPO since 2015 throughout the Malaysian oil palm industry chain has indirectly proved that the oil palm industry is able to grow rapidly without having to sacrifice forests which are a unique biodiversity habitat in our country.He also said that this industry has contributed largely to the preservation and conservation of flora and fauna in the country.

“The international community is now increasingly aware that palm oil production in Malaysia is carried out sustainably by creating a symbiotic relationship between environmental conservation and economic prosperity,” Ahmad Parveez added.He noted that the government is aware of the costs that smallholders have to bear to finance the implementation of the MSPO certification.

“The development of the oil palm industry will definitely benefit the small oil palm farmers in Malaysia, especially in Bentong,” said Ahmad Parveez.
