CPOPC continues to strengthen the capacity of independent smallholders through the Good Agricultural Practices Training Programme in El Progreso, Honduras, which brought together 64 smallholders from Honduras, Costa Rica, and Guatemala.

Delivered by experts from RPN Indonesia, Malaysian Palm Oil Board - MPOB Malaysia, and Applied Agricultural Resources Malaysia, the programme combined technical instruction with practical field demonstrations, covering key aspects of sustainable oil palm cultivation from quality seedling selection, soil health, integrated pest management, fertilisation, and pruning to the application of artificial intelligence, drones, digital mapping, and geospatial technologies for more efficient plantation management.

More than introducing new techniques, the programme strengthened the confidence of smallholders to embrace innovation, improve productivity, and make more informed decisions for their plantations. It also built lasting connections among producing countries, proving that shared challenges are best addressed through shared solutions.

Beyond enhancing technical knowledge, the programme equipped participants with practical skills to improve productivity, strengthen farm resilience, and make more informed management decisions. It also fostered greater collaboration among palm oil-producing countries, reaffirming the value of knowledge exchange and cooperation among producing countries in advancing sustainable agriculture.

🤝 Through initiatives such as the GAP Training Programme, CPOPC remains committed to empowering smallholders, promoting innovation, strengthening international cooperation, and ensuring that no smallholders is left behind.

Can palm oil and biodiversity thrive together?

The answer lies in productivity. As the world's most land-efficient vegetable oil crop, sustainably produced palm oil shows that feeding a growing global population and protecting nature can go hand in hand. Across palm oil-producing countries from Indonesia and Malaysia to Colombia and Guatemala productivity, habitat restoration and biodiversity protection are advancing together.

This article explores how sustainable palm oil is helping feed the world while protecting more nature.

Following its engagement with ICAO - International Civil Aviation Organization , CPOPC held a strategic discussion with H.E. Muhsin Syihab, Ambassador of Indonesia to Canada and Permanent Representative of Indonesia to ICAO, together with Mr. Nurulhakeem Hasim, Permanent Representative of Malaysia to ICAO, to explore the next steps in advancing dialogue on palm-based Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).

Taken together, the engagements provided important diplomatic anchoring for CPOPC’s emerging ICAO workstream. The support and guidance of the Permanent Missions of Malaysia and Indonesia will be essential in connecting CPOPC’s technical advocacy with Member State processes and in identifying appropriate entry points within ICAO. The meetings also reinforced the need to engage the private sector, as the future of palm-based SAF will depend not only on policy recognition but also on investment, certification, production readiness, airline demand and commercially viable implementation.

🌿 CPOPC remains committed to building strategic partnerships that advance science-based, practical, and inclusive pathways towards sustainable aviation.

Ahead of its engagement with the ICAO - International Civil Aviation Organization , CPOPC held a coordination meeting with the Permanent Representative of Malaysia to ICAO, Mr. Nurulhakeem Hasim to exchange perspectives on advancing palm-based Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) under the CORSIA framework.

The discussion focused on ensuring that global frameworks such as CORSIA are effectively translated into national policies, certification systems, and implementation pathways. CPOPC reaffirmed its role in supporting Member Countries through policy coordination, information-sharing, technical advocacy and engagement with relevant government agencies and industry stakeholders, while helping ensure that palm-based SAF opportunities are properly reflected in national aviation decarbonization strategies.

As the global voice of palm oil-producing countries, CPOPC continues to advance practical and collaborative solutions for a more sustainable aviation future.
