  • Does Papua New Guinea have a good reputation for sustainable palm oil?
  • While deforestation for oil palm expansion in Malaysia and Indonesia is in decline, it is about to escalate in Papua New Guinea (PNG). 14 newcomers in the oil palm industry will make or break the country’s good reputation for producing sustainable palm oil.
  • What is the oil palm industry in Papua New Guinea?
  • The oil palm industry in Papua New Guinea is small by international standards, but very important for the country, underpinning the economies of the provinces where it is mostly grown (West New Gritain, Oro, Milne Bay and New Ireland). An estimated 200,000 people live in households that depend on oil palm as their principal source of income.
  • What is the Papua New Guinea palm oil platform?
  • Funded by the UN REDD+ project and led by the Papuan Department of Agriculture and Livestock, the Papua New Guinea Palm Oil Platform (PNG POP) was launched in 2018 with strong commitment from the national government.
  • Are oil palm land leases a root-cause of problems in PNG?
  • Smallholders who cultivate oil palm under Land Settlement Schemes in PNG are suffering from low income and over-population. Under an oil palm project, introduced in 1967, smallholders were granted 99-year leases for a 6.0 to 6.5 hectares block of government land. This paper argues that the existing land leasing-system is a root-cause of problems.
