The Thailand National Interpretation for Smallholders developed by the Thai National Interpretation Working Group (Thai NI WG) has now been approved by the RSPO Executive Board.
The Thai NI WG has worked since 2010 to develop the document involving 21 members coming from Academics, grower/ farmer representatives, refineries and biodiesel plants, palm oil crushing mills, NGOSs, Government and Association.
With this approval, independent smallholders in Thailand can now be audited and certified against the standard.
The documents, both in English and Thai versions, are now available in the RSPO website. Click to find it at https://rspo.org/en/document_national_interpretations
