Criterion 4.1
Operating Procedures are appropriately documented and consistently implemented and
monitored
PTTN has Standard Operating Procedures with the best practices for its mill and estates operations.
The mill have been certified to QMS ISO 9001 and HSE management SMK3 by the Ministry of Labour
of Indonesia. Most of the Standard Operation Procedures are incorporated in the SM-K3 management
The following procedures applicable and implemented within sustainable palm oil, such as :
a. SOP for Oil Palm (containing aspects from nursery, land preparation, planting, upkeep,
harvesting, waste management, HCV, emergency preparedness and response, and
environmental monitoring).
b. SOP for Palm Oil Mill (containing stages of process, boiler, power generation, water treatment,
land application, electrical system, quality (inc monitoring of CPO parameters), dispatch and
laboratory).
c. Manual and SOP for Environment Management System, Health & Safety and SPO (containing
application of pesticides, use of PPE , emergency preparadness) .
Operational inspection for harvesting, maintenance, fertilizing, workshops, and other farming
operations by the Vice President of Agronomy (VPA) and Regional Controler (RC) which is performed
every 3 months. However, not all the procedures established are adequate or properly implemented.
It was found that in Standard Operating Procedure for replanting doesn’t explain the timetable to plant
legume cover crops. A Major non-compliance was issued.
There was not clear which operating working instruction (WI) implemented in weeding, spraying and
harvesting process, as there were two IK available: IK-12, IK-20, IK-21 (Rev 00, dated 02.07 2011) or
IKPBNE/01, 02, 04 (Rev.00, dated 01.07 2011). A Major non-compliance was issued.
Compliance Status : Not Compliant (See NCR T-01.07/2011 and T-04.07/2011)
Criterion 4.2
Practices maintain soil fertility at, or where possible improve soil fertility, to a level that
ensures optimal and sustained yield
SMARTRI, a corporate owned Research Institute has laboratory services to provide annual fertilizer
recommendations based on soil sampling and analysis which are carried out once in 3 years while
leaf sampling and analysis are regularly performed on yearly basis. For soil fertility and nutrient
uptake correlation purpose, soil sampling units are arranged to coincide with the leaf sampling units.
Parameters analyzed for soil samples consist of physical analysis ( texture), pH, organic carbon, total
N, P and K, available P and Cation Exchange Capacity. Soil sampling is conducted in accordance
with existing standard operating procedures (Soil Sampling Unit (SSU) Work Instruction)
There are some agronomic practice to improve and maintain soil fertility implemented in PTTN :
1. Using organic fertilizer
2. Plant Legume Cover Crops
3. Pruning and frond stacking
4. Weeding,
