2 ADDRESSING CHALLENGES
IN PLANTATION MANAGEMENT

The Seminar

The plantation industry is constantly facing many challenges, for example, to increase productivity

per unit area and per worker, cost optimisation, pursuing effective solutions in estate and mill
operations, conservation and protection of the natural environment and of course to remain
sustainable and competitive in the long term. In addition to these demanding issues, the industry
today is faced with a new threat – the global Covid-19 pandemic. A large amount of global
economic activity has suddenly collapsed in the discretionary sector and demand for palm oil
and other commodities declined significantly in the first half of 2020 due to the Movement Control
Order (MCO) and lockdown implemented around the world. However, prices for palm oil surged in
the second half of 2020 due to supply shortages triggered by unfavourable weather, logistics issues
and rising demand from China and India. Palm oil prices jumped in the first half of 2021 due to La
Nina weather and expected to be firm in second half of 2021 due to rising demand and decline in
production.

In its June 2021 Global Economic Prospects report, the World Bank forecasts the global economy
to expand by 5.6% in 2021 and 4.3% in 2022, driven largely by a few big economies. While there
are welcome signs of global recovery, the pandemic continues to inflict poverty and inequality
on people in developing countries around the world. However, growth in the East Asia region
is projected to accelerate by 7.7% in 2021 and 5.3% in 2022, supported by higher demand and
elevated commodity prices.

Therefore, in order to address some of these issues, The Incorporated Society of Planters (ISP) is
organising its 15th ISP National Seminar 2022 (NATSEM 2022). The theme, “Addressing Challenges in
Plantation Management” will set the direction for this thought-provoking discussion, to be held from
14 - 15 March 2022 in Royale Chulan Kuala Lumpur.

This theme will highlight and address on diverse issues related to plantation management that
shouldn’t be considered independent of each other, thus requires an integrated approach for
maximum improvement. These issues include crop ecology and cropping systems, pest and disease
management, land and soil management, mechanisation, sustainable agriculture, manpower,
climate change, food safety and waste management. In addition, the entire plantation sector has
to develop and adopt robust SOPs in light of the Covid-19 pandemic.

This seminar will benefit all those who seek to continuously improve and strengthen the plantation
sector. When challenges within these criteria are answered, there will be improvement in terms of
productivity. Throughout the two-day seminar with more than 400 participants expected, a trade
exhibition with 45 booths will be held for participants to explore equipment and products related to
the plantation industry. The seminar and exhibition outcomes among others are to build a network
among industry players and create opportunities through various platforms for exchange of ideas
and thoughts.

We’ve learned that addressing challenges in plantation management will be the answer to improve
yield and productivity, produce safe and high-quality products and generate more income in the
plantation sector in view of the limited land for crop cultivation and prevailing sluggish economic
environment due to Covid-19 pandemic. We are confident that this seminar can identify the trends,
issues and technological solutions that must be developed immediately to manage the future
working environment in estates and mills and reroute the industry back to its glory days.

We bid you all a warm welcome
