about this report
This is IndoAgri’s first sustainability report based on the principle
of materiality. We have chosen to adhere to the Sustainability
Reporting Guidelines version 3.1 of the Global Reporting Initiative
(GRI) and the AA1000 Accountability Principles (2008) of
inclusivity, materiality and responsiveness to disclose how IndoAgri
achieves its profits while working alongside local communities and
stakeholders to improve the welfare of society and sustainability
of the environment.
The scope of this report covers IndoAgri’s oil palm plantations
and mills in Indonesia only, and addresses material issues most
questioned by our stakeholders. It presents information on key topics
of sustainability achievements that include economic, environmental
and social aspects. The report includes the implementation of our
corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts from 1 January 2012
to 31 December 2012.
The information covered in this report is provided by IndoAgri.
In this first report, we limit description of sustainability principles
to our oil palm plantations, palm oil mills and palm oil refineries.
Our environmental quantitative data is based on our plantations
certified by the Roundtable of Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) and
mills audited by Indonesia’s Programme for Pollution Control
(PROPER) unless otherwise stated. We have chosen this approach
as the RSPO estates are audited according the guidelines of the
RSPO and the data of these estates have been verified. We will
continue to RSPO-certify our estates and mills and these will be
covered in future reports as will be our other crops. The RSPO
estates covered in this report are from PT SIMP and PT Lonsum,
the main operating subsidiaries of IndoAgri. The financial and
employee data covers the entire Group unless otherwise stated.
IndoAgri has not performed any assurance on this report.
We welcome feedback on this report. Please send feedback to

future reporting
This report will be published annually. As this is the first sustainability
report, there is neither revision on information presented previously
nor changes to previous reports. We hope this report will be useful
to all stakeholders, including shareholders, government, financial
and capital market authorities, the public, academia, research
organisations and other interested parties.
