• Land Suitability Assessment and Soil Organic Carbon Stocks as Two Keys for Achieving Sustainability of Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.)
  The most efficient oil-producing crop, oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is able to generate a higher yield than soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), and sunflower (Helianthus L). Relatively affordable in price, palm oil is in high demand in Asia. Further than a food source, Crude Palm Oil also serves as feedstock for biodiesel – an environmentally friendly renewable energy. In Indonesia, the palm oil industry plays an essential role in the national economy. However, negative issues in oil palm cultivation bring certain apprehension towards its industrial sector in implementing the concept of sustainable development. To overcome this, the sustainable certification has been developed through the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) and Indonesia Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO) in order to accomplish the global standards for sustainable palm oil. RSPO and ISPO function to minimize the negative effect of oil palm production on the environment and social community. Indonesia’s National Team for the Acceleration of Poverty Reduction indicates that oil palm in Indonesia has significantly contributed to at least six out of the 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs). This review addresses 56 references from Google Scholar for the issues on understanding the sustainability from land management’s perspective, the land suitability for oil palm, and the strategy for land management to achieve oil palm sustainability. The role of land management technology and the maintenance of soil carbon stocks are emphasized as vital parts of best management practice to achieve conditions in line with SDGs.
