From 21-25 October 2013, the Assessment team of Intertek conducted the Main Assessment in which 3 out of the 5 estates owned by FELDA of KKS Baiduri Ayu Grouping namely FGVPM Sahabat 09/15, FGVPM Sahabat 16 and Felda Sahabat 02, as well as the palm oil mill were assessed for compliance against the RSPO requirements. The number of estates sampled was based on a minimum sample of 0.8√y where y is the number of management subunits and the selection was made based on their potential risks on social, environmental and biodiversity issues such as their proximity to forest reserves, hill sides, riparian zones and high conservation value areas. The 2 estates (Felda Sahabat 01 and Felda Sahabat 02) are owned by organized smallholders under the FELDA Settlers’ Scheme. Felda Sahabat 01 consisted of 10 blocks with 191 settler units and Felda Sahabat 02 consisted of 10 blocks with 178 settler units. A total of 20 settler units comprising of 10 units each from Felda Sahabat 01 and Felda Sahabat 02 was selected for determination of compliance against the RSPO requirements during the Main Assessment. The sampling size of settler units was based on a minimum sample of 0.8√s where s is the number of settler units and the selection was made based on their current state of the settler units and their potential risks. Felda Sahabat 01 and Felda Sahabat 02 are undergoing replanting since 2010 and it is planned that replanting of the whole area will be completed by end 2013. During the on-site assessment, relevant documents and records, including Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), management plans, hectarage development, FFB, CPO and PK production, oil palm age profile, operational controls and measures, operational data and records, training records, etc. were reviewed and verified for compliance.
