We prepare the data European buyers, PROPER and banks ask for at every phase of your estate, supplying growers and plant, and bring it together on Ailesh+.

See your phaseTalk to us about your supply chain

European buyers now ask for data from every grower's plot.

Plot geolocation, fertiliser records and plant effluent meters get reused by the EUDR, PROPER and emissions reporting. Collect them once, properly, and every later obligation draws on the same data.

Risk

From 30 December 2026, coffee, cocoa and rubber can only enter the EU if every plot of origin is proven deforestation-free since the end of 2020. Buyers are also starting to check for child and forced labour in supplying villages.

1.27 million children in Indonesia were working in 2024, up from the year before.

According to Statistics Indonesia (BPS), 2025

Opportunity

Cocoa husk, coffee pulp, filter cake and latex serum can become compost, biochar or biogas that cuts emissions. Replanting also leaves plenty of room to lift grower yields.

700–800 kg of cocoa per hectare in Indonesia, about half what other producers achieve.

According to the Ministry of Agriculture via Antara, 2026

Priority

Map every grower plot, meter the treatment plant and boilers before crushing, and log fertiliser use and grower income from the first season. That data fills Due Diligence Statements, PROPER documents and emissions reports at once.

  • EUDR

    applies 30 Dec 2026 for large and medium companies, 30 Jun 2027 for micro and small

    Coffee, cocoa and rubber and their derivatives must be deforestation-free since 31 Dec 2020, with geolocation for every plot. Instant coffee follows from 30 Dec 2027.

    According to the European Commission, 2026; Rödl & Partner, 2026

  • PROPER (Environment Ministry Regulation 7/2025)

    annual cycle

    Sugar mills, crumb rubber factories and crop processors that export or carry significant impact can be designated participants.

    According to the BPK legal database

  • Carbon pricing (Presidential Regulation 110/2025)

    in force since 10 Oct 2025

    Agriculture is a covered sector, and verified mitigation actions can be recorded as carbon units in the national registry (SRUK).

    According to the BPK legal database

From supplier evaluation to replanting, one chain of data.

The data importers and regulators ask for has to be gathered from thousands of growers before the first shipment. Pick your phase to see what needs to be ready.

Phase 1: Know every supplier plot before the contract is signed.

Most coffee, cocoa and rubber comes from small family farms, so the legality of your supply depends on grower data. Plots cleared after 2020, or sitting inside the state forest estate without a permit, risk rejection in Europe.

What needs to be ready

    • 1.1 Forest estate status

      Overlay the nucleus estate and supplying villages on forest estate maps, as plantations inside it are now being brought into line.

      According to Presidential Regulation 5/2025

    • 1.2 Forest cover as at 31 December 2020

      Analyse imagery for the nucleus estate and every sourcing area, then flag risky plots before they join the supplier list.

    • 1.3 Growers, tenure and FPIC

      Map farmer groups, tenure rights and customary land, then run FPIC before the nucleus estate expands.

Phase 2: Effluent per tonne is decided on the drawing board.

Effluent limits for crumb rubber and sugar plants are set per tonne, so the water design decides compliance for the plant's whole life. The plot registry designed alongside it gets reused by importers and banks.

What needs to be ready

    • 2.1 Environmental and technical approvals

      One study covers the nucleus estate, post-harvest units and plant, processed together with the effluent standards.

      discharge capped at 40 m³ per tonne of rubber product

      According to Environment Ministry Regulation 5/2014

    • 2.2 Bagasse boiler and condenser water

      Fix turbine capacity, surplus bagasse and the sugar mill's condenser-water recycling loop at the design stage.

    • 2.3 Plot registry and grower codes

      Design a registry with coordinates for every plot, polygons for plots above 4 ha, grower codes and a Due Diligence Statement template.

      According to Regulation (EU) 2023/1115

Phase 3: Growers' post-harvest units go up with the plant.

Bean quality and lot traceability are decided at village fermentation units and stores. Build both together, and the first lot through the gate already carries grower and plot codes.

What needs to be ready

    • 3.1 Zero-burn clearing

      Clear nucleus and cane expansion land without fire, and monitor dust, erosion and downstream river quality every six months.

    • 3.2 Village fermentation, drying and storage

      Log every batch by farmer group and plot, and route coffee pulping wastewater to a treatment pond.

    • 3.3 Local hiring and grievances

      Record the local-hire share, contractor terms and a grievance channel from construction; community unrest can now trigger direct central supervision.

      According to Environment Ministry Regulation 6/2026

Phase 4: Your first crushing and buying season becomes the baseline.

Energy per tonne of cane, water per tonne of rubber and fertiliser emissions per tonne of beans will be compared against this season. In the same season, the plot registry is tested with importers before the EUDR applies.

What needs to be ready

    • 4.1 Meters at the compliance point and the operating certificate

      Install flow meters at the treatment outlet plus boiler steam and dryer power meters, then apply for the operating certificate (SLO) after trial runs.

    • 4.2 Base-year greenhouse gas inventory

      Calculate Scope 1 from boilers, fertiliser and livestock, plus Scope 3 from supplying growers and raw material haulage.

    • 4.3 Due Diligence Statement trial with importers

      Field-verify grower geolocation, then trial Due Diligence Statements with importers before 30 December 2026.

Phase 5: Extraction and residues decide your rating and your costs.

A sugar mill that raises its extraction rate uses less energy and water per tonne of sugar. Residues turned into compost, biochar or biogas cut emissions and add to your PROPER evidence.

5–6% vs 8–10% extraction at state-owned sugar mills against the Java target.

According to the Indonesian Sugarcane Farmers Association (APTRI) via Antara, 2026

What needs to be ready

    • 5.1 From Green towards Gold

      Build evidence on LCA, energy and water efficiency, residue 3R, agroforestry biodiversity and SROI for grower programmes.

    • 5.2 Residues into compost, biochar or biogas

      Process filter cake, cocoa husk, coffee pulp and latex serum, then record the volumes as mitigation actions.

      According to Presidential Regulation 110/2025

    • 5.3 Due diligence and labour checks

      Prepare a Due Diligence Statement for every EU shipment, and monitor child and forced labour in supplying villages. The EU ban on forced-labour products applies from 14 December 2027.

      According to Regulation (EU) 2024/3015

Phase 6: New planting must pass the same tests as the first estate.

National programmes are replanting cocoa and uprooting old cane ratoons, while mills add capacity or cogeneration. Every new block and every retrofit changes plot data or figures you have already permitted.

What needs to be ready

    • 6.1 Cocoa replanting and ratoon renewal

      Record seedlings, variety and planting age per plot so the EUDR registry and emissions figures stay current.

      target peremajaan kakao 102,488 ha of cocoa replanting targeted for 2026

      According to the Ministry of Agriculture via Antara, 2026

    • 6.2 New land and indigenous peoples

      New cane areas for sugar self-sufficiency need forest estate, peat and FPIC checks before any land is cleared.

      According to Presidential Regulation 40/2023

    • 6.3 Permit changes before a retrofit

      Amend your permits before cogeneration, new dryers or extra crushing capacity start running; changes made without an amended permit can now be fined.

      According to Environment Ministry Regulation 6/2026

The points that set the value of your harvest.

Typical facility illustration; not a specific site.

Farm and plant data in one source.

Without a single source, grower records, plant data and emissions reports are built separately, and the figures often fail to match when checked. Ailesh+ brings it together: treatment and boiler meters via IoT, energy in Energy+, emissions and supplier data in Carbon+, residues and water in Waste+, and grower programmes in Social+. PROPER+ and ESG+ then build your PROPER and PSPK reports from that same source.
