INDONESIAN PALM OIL REPLANTING PROGRAM WILL SUPPORT ACHIEVING SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS

ABSTRACT: Indonesia’s palm oil industry is one of the National strategic commodities. This industry isinclusive and has a very broad impact on Indonesia’s economic development, regional development, povertyalleviation, the country’s foreign exchange resources and attempted to help overcome Indonesia’s balance ofpayments deficit. Along with the end of the first 25 years of age in most of palm oil plantations in Indonesia, thereplanting policy has become an important momentum, because it concerns the future of the Indonesian oilindustry, then continued with the second milestone of the 2040s. As about 2.5 million hectares of palm oil inIndonesia need to replant in order to increase the productivity of palm oil and oil palm, so with replanting,Indonesia also improves productivity and is followed by improvements in technical culture. Indonesian palm oilproductivity is directed to reach the 35-26 scenario, which is the production of 35 tons of FFB per ha and 26percent yield so that Indonesia’s palm productivity will shift from productivity levels of 4.4 tons of CPO perhectare to 9 tons of CPO per hectare. With this level of productivity, Indonesia’s CPO production will increasefrom 77.17 million tons in 2050 to 94.64 million tons. The purpose of this study is not merely to look at palm oilplantations from an economic standpoint because in a broader scope, palm oil plantations have four multifunction agriculture, namely green functions, blue functions, yellow functions, and white functions. Thereplanting policy of Indonesian palm oil also plays a role in strengthening Indonesia’s palm oil industry in theachievement of the Sustainable Development Goals, which includes the economic fields (8 SDGs), social fields(6 SDGs) and the environment (3 SDGs).
