OUR PROJECT
03
- We are currently running a teak plantation in Muna and West Muna, Southeast Sulawesi. The site has been chosen due to its ideal conditions—fertile soil, plentiful rainfall throughout the year, and the temperature of 28°C/84.2°F—which ensure optimal growth rates.
- We responsibly manage our teak plantation through an accelerated growth methodology—involving vegetative seedling materials and intensive cultivation—which shortens the rotation length from traditionally over 30 years to only 10 years.
- Our project in the area has been accepted and fully supported by local communities. Therefore, to give back, we help local farmers build their skills and capacity by teaching them the best practices for implementing a sustainable agroforestry program involving corn, soybean, and peanut.
- Our planting targets are based on a 10-year rotation period of an 18.989-hectare teak plantation grown from our own nursery.
