Traceable and Sustainable Palm Oil Supply Chain (TARCTION) Project

The Project's purpose is to implement supportive on-field actions while verifying the No Deforestation No Peat No Exploitation (NDPE) compliance of the project, in line with L'ORÉAL 2030 Forest Policy, ensuring traceability to the producers and implementing yearly reporting of its impact. Overall finality of the Project is to establish a sustainable supply-chain of palm oil acting as a lever of development for the Beneficiaries and aligned with L'ORÉAL sustainable sourcing criteria available.

The strategic partnership is established to implement innovative ways to

1. Support the growth of sustainable oil palm production in Jambi
2. To promote the inclusion of independent smallholders in global palm oil market, considering the upcoming EU Deforestation-free regulation entering into force end of 2024; and
3. To support the growth of regenerative agriculture in oil palm to restore the soils.

The Project Traction (L'Oréal) is a project focused on implementing regenerative agriculture concepts aimed at encouraging farmers to practice a balanced approach between chemical and organic farming. This allows the soil and microorganisms within it to break down nutrients (fertilizers) that are absorbed by the plants, thereby reducing the excessive use of chemical fertilizers.

Through this regenerative agriculture training, a fertilizer unit (composting unit) will be established in the village to support the availability of soil-amendment fertilizers, ensuring healthier soil conditions and increasing palm oil production. In this regard, SNV through the TRACTION project, intends to appoint a contractor to construct a composting unit building.
