In our factory, processing the palm fruits generates lots of mineral-rich organic material from the Palm Husk. For example, from January 2023 to April 2024, we produced—on average—more than 5,700 metric tons of organic material per month of operation. All this organic matter is returned to our palm fields for soil enrichment and fertilizing.
Additionally, starting in 2022, we started to utilize the organic waste from our kitchens, which has allowed us to convert a total of 1,500 tons of waste into organic fertilizer through composting. We use the compost as fertilizer in our reforestation projects.
