We ensure a good drainage system at our plantations, especially in peat and coastal areas with high rainfall, to better manage and remove excess water from the estates. Plantations in areas with low rainfall, such as inland or hilly areas, are protected from water loss by the construction of terraces, digging of silt pits between terraces to minimise run-offs, including covering the ground with palm fronds and legume cover crops on the terrace fringes.
