        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) \u2013 The Indonesian Palm Oil Farmers Association\n(POPSI) has stated that improving palm oil trade governance regulations\nis crucial for maintaining the stability of the national industry\necosystem. This follows the establishment of PT Danantara Sumber Daya\nIndonesia (DSI), a state-owned enterprise (SOE) formed to enhance the\nmanagement of strategic commodity exports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRegulations affecting palm oil trade must consider the impact on the\nentire supply chain, particularly smallholder farmers who are the\nprimary suppliers of domestic palm oil raw materials,\u201d said POPSI\nChairman Mansuetus Darto in a statement on Sunday in Jakarta.<\/p>\n<p>He supported the government\u2019s efforts to close foreign exchange leaks\nand improve national palm oil trade governance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe support the government\u2019s drive to boost foreign exchange\nreserves, as higher reserves enable more development programmes for\npublic benefit,\u201d Darto added.<\/p>\n<p>However, he cautioned that new policies, including the proposed\n\u2018one-stop export\u2019 system, must be carefully designed to avoid disrupting\nthe stability of the palm oil industry ecosystem involving millions of\nfarmers nationwide.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, DSI has been tasked with managing and overseeing exports\nof key natural resources such as coal, crude palm oil (CPO), and ferro\nalloy.<\/p>\n<p>Darto said the government must ensure clear regulations, transparent\ngovernance, and thorough studies involving all industry\nstakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGood policies require more than good intentions; they need\nregulatory certainty, integrity safeguards, transparent governance, and\ncareful assessment of social and economic impacts across every link in\nthe industrial chain,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>He added that if DSI plays an active role in palm oil trade or export\nmechanisms, it must ensure smooth payments and price stability to\nprevent disruptions harmful to farmers.<\/p>",
