Oil palm cultivation: Godrej Agrovet signs MoUs with Assam, Manipur and Tripura.
Aug 24, 2022
Diversified agri-business firm Godrej Agrovet on Tuesday said it has inked MoUs with Assam, Manipur and Tripura governments for development and promotion of oil palm cultivation under a central scheme. Godrej Agrovet NSE 0.22 % is the largest oil palm processor in India and works directly with farmers for the entire crop cycle.
As part of the memorandums of understanding (MoUs), Godrej Agrovet said it will be allotted land across the three states for promotion and development of sustainable palm oil plantations in the region.
The collaboration will bring new opportunities and growth in building oil palm plantation in these three state and would help provide the required support to the farmers, it said.
'Currently, we have around 65,000 hectare under palm oil cultivation across the country, which we plan to increase to 1 lakh hectare in the next few years,' company's Managing Director Balram Singh Yadav said.
The company is confident that the National Mission on Edible Oils - Oil Palm (NMEO-OP) along with active participation of responsible organisations such as Godrej Agrovet will lead to bridging the gap in India's oil mission, he said.
In August 2021, the Centre had launched NMEO-OP with a planned outlay of Rs 11,040 crore for raising oil palm area to 10 lakh hectare by 2025-26 and 16.7 lakh hectare by 2029-30 with special focus on North-East and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
Godrej Agrovet CEO (oil palm) Sougata Niyogi said, 'With our processing plant in Mizoram, we are prepared to sustainably serve the demand of the North-East markets. ...With active support of the state governments we can develop 15,000 hectare in four northeastern states in the next five years. '
India, a net importer of palm oil, follows a sustainable model of palm oil plantation which is based on intercropping and scientific farming processes. Most of the palm oil cultivation in the country is done by converting paddy fields which have been contributing towards surplus produce.
Godrej Agrovet's palm oil-focussed work is present in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Odisha, Goa, Maharashtra, and Mizoram.
Its range of products, including crude palm oil, crude palm kernel oil and palm kernel cake, are produced at its six oil palm mills spread across the country.
