Company owner IUP-P is also required to facilitate people palm garden development, environmental and social responsibility, and shall divide the shares ownership of the factory to the farmers as a supplier of raw materials. The government of Labuhan Batu Utara district has issued a permit to build a palm oil mill without a garden called IUP-P as much as 3 units.
