As at 30 April 2011, a
total of 55,017 hectares (ha) were planted,
an increase of approximately 9% compared to
last year. The Group’s mature oil palm
hectarage grew by 71% to 25,255 ha from a
year earlier.
As at 31 July 2011, the
total land bank of the Group stood at
83,480 ha.
Fresh Fruit
Bunch
Fresh Fruit Bunch (FFB) production for the
year was 359,100 Metric tonnes (Mt), a
significant improvement of 96% over the
preceding financial year.
We expect crop output to
grow at a sustainable pace as more palms
are reaching production age.
CPO
Mill
In the financial year
under review, the Group’s palm oil mill
produced 29,900 Mt of CPO and 4,945 Mt of
palm kernel (PK). Jaya Tiasa currently has
one mill operating with an installed annual
processing capacity of 270,000 Mt.
In line with the
expected rapid growth in crop production in
the years ahead as sizeable oil palm areas
reach maturity, we target to construct fve
more CPO mills, all of which are
strategically located near the plantations.
The Group’s first CPO mill in Pulau Bruit,
Sarawak (see pic) commenced its operation
in June 2009. With an initial processing
capacity of 45-metric tonne of FFB per
hour, it is currently under expansion
to increase the FFB processing capacity to
90 Mt per hour to keep pace with our
growing oil palm fruits production.
