Indonesia Strengthens Traceability of Palm Oil, Cocoa, and Coffee to Meet EU Rules
Published
Indonesia continues to strengthen traceability systems for palm oil, cocoa, and coffee. This step is being taken to comply with new European Union rules, namely the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). The regulation requires that products entering the European Union market do not come from land that was cleared after deforestation.
In this effort, the government and business operators are using geolocation data to verify the location of plantations and production land. In addition, the legal status of the land is also being examined carefully. The goal is to ensure that every product can be traced back to its source.
One program in progress is FOLUR, which applies this approach in five regencies. The program aims to help smallholder farmers and small companies adapt to the new standards. With a clearer system, it is hoped that Indonesia's commodity exports to Europe can continue to run smoothly.
Overall, strengthening traceability is an important part of Indonesia's plantation sector. Business operators need to keep adjusting to international rules so that their products remain accepted in the global market.
