Papua New Guinea Plots are here!

Palm oil plots on New Britain Island, PNG

We’ve got an amazing new addition - Papua New Guinea (PNG) plots. We have integrated 165 industrial-sized plots in PNG to nearly 10,00o plots covering Indonesia, Malaysia, and Latin America. As the world's 7th largest producer, PNG's palm oil production has become an important economic activity, particularly for smallholder farmers, who contribute a significant percentage of volume. However, allegations have been made about palm-related deforestation, human rights violations, and biodiversity loss. To aid PNG monitoring efforts, Palmoil.io now analyzes plot-level deforestation and then traces cases to global supply chains. If you source from PNG, now would be a great time to subscribe.
