MP Evans Group PLC said a new palm oil mill has now been commissioned at its Musi Rawas estate in South Sumatra, making six in total.
This 60-tonne-per-hour facility is now processing all the fresh fruit bunches from the group's own areas and those of its associated scheme smallholders.
Oil extraction rates should increase by utilising this new mill rather than sending crops to third-party mills.
Evans added it is working towards certification from the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil, the award of which would increase further the total percentage of certified sustainable production.
Group and associated scheme-smallholder crops are continuing to increase significantly at Musi Rawas, said the statement, as the young areas mature, with an initial target of 10,000 planted hectares of its own and associated scheme oil palm.
