Criteria for Sustainable Palm Oil Production: Papua New Guinea

  • Why is oil palm a major crop in PNG?
  • First, oil palm has been the most common crop proposed for large-scale agricultural development schemes in PNG, so oil palm schemes account for 2.2 million of the total of more than 5 million hectares of land that has been alienated through the grant of ‘special agricultural and business leases’ (SABLs).
  • 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.
  • Can Papua New Guinea attract large-scale transnational investments for oil palm production?
  • This article uses a case study in Papua New Guinea (PNG), where the government seeks to attract large-scale transnational investments for oil palm production by formalizing large swathes of customary land.
  • How many proposed oil palm projects are there in PNG?
  • We examined 29 proposed oil palm projects associated with 51 separate SABLs in 10 diferent provinces (Table 7.2). The areas shown as being earmarked for the planting of oil palm are those specified in the development plans or environmental impact statements submitted to the PNG government.
