May 26, 2025 (press release) –
Deforestation, labour abuses, carbon emissions – palm oil has a bad reputation. But palm oil can be produced in a responsible way. By improving production practices and increasing the demand for sustainable palm oil we can protect the environment as well as ensure dignified livelihoods for millions of smallholder farmers.
Our Palm Oil program supports the production of traceable and sustainable palm oil at scale. We do this through partnerships with local and international companies and governments as well as taking action at field level.
On the production side, sustainability objectives include increasing smallholder income, transparent land titles and forest and peat protection. In consuming countries, unifying supply chain actors and working with governments and trade bodies to develop specific action plans.
