Federación Nacional de Cultivadores de Palma de Aceite (FEDEPALMA)
Colombia
The National Federation of Palm Oil Growers (Fedepalma) exists to support palm growers in the defence of their interests and the achievement of the competitiveness of an oil agribusiness that transforms the quality of life of the communities that host it and promotes progress and welfare.
Created in 1962, Fedepalma is made up of small, medium and large palm oil growers, who operate on a corporate, associative, including strategic alliances, or individual scale, as well as palm oil extractors.
Colombian palm growers have one of the most robust and active trade associations in the agricultural sector, the National Federation of Oil Palm Growers, Fedepalma, whose actions have been decisive to consolidate the agribusiness in the country. Fedepalma is a corporate organization that identifies the needs and values of its members to respond to their interests and expectations. Its mission is to bring oil palm growers together, help them define their interests, and guide them in all aspects related to their activity.
Since its foundation in 1962, Fedepalma has promoted all types of initiatives aimed at increasing competitiveness and promoting the sustainability of the oil palm sector, prioritizing the activities that producers and other individuals are not able to efficiently carry out on their own.
Due to its corporate nature, Fedepalma studies the inherent risks in the oil palm business, analyzes the markets, performs prospective exercises, explores alternative uses, and advises entrepreneurs on the reality of the palm-growing activities so that they may make their own investment decisions based on comprehensive, accurate, timely, and adequate information.
To do so, within the context of the Strategic Map of the Federation, Fedepalma seeks for the competitiveness of the oil palm sector and the general wellbeing of affiliated palm growers through a value proposition that contributes to improve the phytosanitary status, increase productivity, optimize the profitability of the palm, consolidating palm-growing as a sustainable business, and strengthening the institutional framework of the oil palm sector.
