PROTECTING HIGH BIODIVERSITY VALUE (HBV)/HIGH CONSERVATION VALUES (HCV) AREAS FGV gives priority to conserving biodiversity, especially in plantations located in close proximity to natural forest reserves or conservation areas that are habitat to endangered, rare and threatened (ERT) species. FGV pledges to carry out conservation initiatives for the continuous protection of the natural ecosystem and its services. In line with our GSP, we ensure our new developments do not encroach into environmentally sensitive areas, HBV/HCV areas. Wherever possible, we plant beneficial plants to attract natural predators of insect pests in our plantations. Most of our plantations are situated near natural forest, forest reserves and wildlife protection areas. Naturally, these areas contain some HBV/HCV elements that need to be preserved. We have conducted HBV/HCV assessment in these areas and developed management plans to maintain and enhance the identified values. As of 2020, we have identified a total of 12,180.61 ha of HBV/HCV areas within our land boundaries in Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah & Sarawak and Indonesia. The total HBV and HCV area managed by location is presented below: Perak Tawai 1 Tawai 2 Pahang Tembangau 05 Tembangau 06 Kelantan Aring 10 Aring 11 Sarawak Sampadi Complex Asian Plantation Limited (APL) Terengganu Setiu 01 Sabah Yapidmas PUP Complex Sahabat Complex Umas Complex Kalabakan Complex 1 4 6 7 8 9 14 13 12 11 10 3 5 2 1 6 3 8 5 10 11 12 13 14 2 7 4 9 Most of our plantations are situated near natural forest, forest reserves and wildlife protection areas.
