CPOPC Strengthens Smallholders’ Voice in Global Palm Oil Dialogue

CPOPC participated in the International Oil Palm Smallholders (IOPS) Forum, organized by APKASINDO in IKN, Indonesia, reaffirming its commitment to strengthening the role of smallholders in the global palm oil sector.

At the Forum, CPOPC supported the Joint Statement establishing the World Coalition of Oil Palm Smallholders (WCOPS), which recognizes smallholders as the backbone of the global palm oil supply chain and calls for stronger cooperation and representation at the international level.

CPOPC also delivered a presentation titled “Improving the Role of Smallholders in International Diplomacy,” highlighting the importance of empowering smallholders and ensuring their voices are meaningfully represented in global policymaking and decision-making.

Through its support for WCOPS and continued engagement with smallholders, CPOPC is helping build stronger connections between producer countries, smallholders, and the international community, advancing a more coordinated and impactful “smallholders diplomacy.”

CPOPC has successfully concluded its Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) Training for Smallholders in Teluk Intan, Perak, Malaysia, in collaborating with Malaysian Palm Oil Board - MPOB bringing together around 80 independent oil palm smallholders, including Malay and Orang Asli communities, as well as representatives from Kementerian Perladangan dan Komoditi - KPK .

CPOPC Secretary General, Mdm. Izzana Salleh, highlighted the significant participation of women smallholders, accounting for approximately 60% of the total participants.

With 2 days of training, all participants gained knowledege the importance of GAP, harvesting and pruning methods, fertilisation, pest and disease management, soil and water management, w**d control, financial management and book keeping, as well as the importance of smallholder groups. The training also included hands-on field sessions focusing on the management and control of Ganoderma and Bagworm, two key challenges faced by smallholders in Perak.

Beyond improving farming practices, the training is about empowering smallholders with knowledge and practical tools to improve productivity, livelihoods, and long-term sustainability.

Because a sustainable palm oil industry starts with the people on the ground.

Across palm oil-producing countries, millions of smallholders are not only part of the supply chain. They are an essential pillar of rural economies, supporting livelihoods, communities, and the broader transition towards sustainable palm oil production.

As global sustainability and traceability requirements continue to evolve, producing countries and the palm oil industry have made significant progress in strengthening sustainable practices and supply-chain transparency. Yet, for many smallholders, meeting increasingly complex requirements remains challenging, particularly when access to financing, technology, data, and technical capacity is limited.

Ensuring that smallholders can participate meaningfully in this transition is therefore a shared responsibility. Sustainability requirements should not become barriers that unintentionally exclude smallholders from global markets.

CPOPC and -Indonesia invite you to the joint webinar “Leave No Smallholder Behind: Making EUDR Compliance an Opportunity for Inclusive Development”, exploring the realities faced by oil palm smallholders and the support systems needed to enable them to navigate the EUDR and broader global sustainability expectations.
📅 Friday, 18 September 2026
🕙 10.00–11.30 AM CEST | 15.00–16.30 WIB (Jakarta)
💻 Zoom

Join the conversation on how EUDR implementation can support, not hinder, an inclusive and sustainable transition in which no smallholder is left behind.

CPOPC convenes stakeholders to discuss the future of the palm oil sector

CPOPC convened a Focus Group Discussion on “The Future of the Palm Oil Sector: Building Resilience, Competitiveness, and Sustainable Growth” on 1 September 2026 in Putrajaya, Malaysia.

The meeting brought together representatives of government, industry, statutory bodies and associations to exchange views on key developments affecting the palm oil sector and their implications for producing countries.
Discussions addressed two strategic dimensions: external factors, including market fragmentation, trade barriers, market access, certification and traceability; and internal factors, including productivity, smallholder replanting, financing and the expanding role of palm-based renewable energy.

Participants highlighted the importance of strengthening the resilience and competitiveness of the palm oil sector amid evolving global market conditions, while ensuring that its continued development contributes to economic growth, energy security and the livelihoods of millions who depend on the commodity.

The outcomes of the discussion will contribute to CPOPC’s policy and programme development and support closer alignment with the priorities of its Member Countries and stakeholders.

CPOPC remains committed to advancing dialogue and cooperation among palm oil producing countries and stakeholders towards a resilient, competitive and sustainable palm oil sector.

CPOPC participated in the High-Level Segment of United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification COP17 in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, advocating for palm oil-producing countries in global discussions on drought resilience, land management, and sustainable agriculture, marked CPOPC’s second participation in a UNCCD COP as an accredited observer organization.

CPOPC attended the COP’s 4th–7th and 9th meetings, covering Ministerial Dialogues on innovatie financial mechanisms, drought resilience and rangeland restoration. During the 7th Meeting on Drought Resilience, CPOPC delivered a statement, highlighting the effects of prolonged heat and dry periods on palm oil production, rural incomes and value-chain stability, particularly for smallholders.

CPOPC also contributed to the Action Agenda session “Restoring Land, Recognizing Rights: An Ecocentric Path to Land Degradation Neutrality,” highlighting on how palm oil can contribute to Land Degradation Neutrality through responsible management of existing cultivated landscapes. It was also recognized that forest conversion associated with any commodity must be prevented, while it is misleading to single out palm oil as the principal global driver of deforestation.

Through its engagement at COP17, CPOPC continues to bring a strong producer-country perspective to global sustainability discussions and advocate for practical, inclusive solutions that support both people and the planet.
