Palm oil sector has significant contribution to Indonesia social and economy. The smallholder farmers are also key player in Indonesia palm oil sector as they share almost half of palm oil plantation, hence the development of the sector also depends very much on the productivity of the smallholder farmers. However, the productivity level of smallholder farmers in Indonesia is way lower compare to productivity of Big Corporation’s plantation. Lower productivity of smallholder farmers leads to the lower level of income and increase the risk of illegal land clearing. BPDPKS with Indonesian Government developed a comprehensive replanting program to increase smallholder farmers productivity and welfare as well as to reduce the risk of illegal land clearing. The program has been launched by President Joko Widodo in October 2017 and is targeted to cover 2.4 Million Ha land of smallholder farmers nationwide.
