Land Management

Natural Flora and FaunaTo ensure sustainability of the environment, in particular the land that Sime Darby Plantation operates on, the company formulated its plantation development to include the following criteria:


  1. Retaining natural forest cover on hill slopes greater than 25 degrees. The forest cover serves as reserves for natural enemies of oil palm pests apart from conserving flora and fauna of natural importance and interest.
  2. Maintaining riparian reserves to minimise soil run-off. Riparian reserves also serves as a filtration system to preserve the quality of water entering the rivers.
  3. Conducting land development in phases by incorporating the planting of legume covers, construction of retention ponds, terraces and silt traps.
