Reducing our environmental impact
We reduce the environmental impact of palm oil production by conserving HCV and HCS lands, minimizing encroachment on habitats and ecosystems, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and protecting water quality. In partnership with TFT, Cargill conducted a study to identify HCS forests near our PT Hindoli plantation, successfully using methodology developed by TFT and Greenpeace. The HCS study helped determine which areas are appropriate for development and which lands must be conserved to support ecosystems. We have contracted with the independent consulting firms Daemeter and Solidaridad to assess and develop corrective action plans for our newly acquired operations at Poliplant. Daemeter’s review of social and environmental factors will include field assessments to identify HCV and HCS areas. Solidaridad will advise us on smallholder engagement.
To protect air quality, we reinforced our long-standing zero-burning policy in September 2014 by joining other plantation owners in South Sumatra, Indonesia, in signing a declaration to support the prevention of land and plantation fires, helping to fight haze in the region. We help maintain the health of watersheds by monitoring and treating all wastewater from our operations.
