| dc.description | The Malaysian smallholding sector has undergone rapid development in the past decade and placed itself significant contributors in the country's palm oil industry. The total oil palm area categorized in the sector at the end of 2006 was 972,750.64 hectares accounting for 23.3% of the total planted area in the country. There are two categories of sectors namely grouped smallholders and independent smallholders. The grouped smallholders are managed by Government Oil Palm Plantation Agencies (GOPPA) such as FELDA, FELCRA, RISDA, Farmers Association and States agencies. The independent smallholders are scattered all over the countries and located in the traditional villages. The sector faced a number of constraints ranging from relatively small ownership size, fragmented holdings, ageing participants, lack of inputs etc had led to low productivity and resulted in relatively low income. In order to have these sectors sustainable, inline with the government aspiration of 35:25, there are numerous strategies being formulated towards improving its productivity. Those run by GOPPA have been monitored through resolutions adopted during the recent discussion pertaining to prevailing stagnating of oil palm yield. The 121,959 independent smallholders covering an area of 454,895.50 hectares have been monitored by MPOB by providing them the structured activities towards enhancement of its productivity. | |
