The Musi Banyuasin regency administration in South Sumatra will implement verified source area (VSA) on palm oil to fight against negative campaigns on the commodity. Musi Banyuasin Regent Dodi Reza Alex on Friday (February 1) said the VSA is a system where palm oil produced in the regency will be verified to remove concerns regarding deforestation in the industry. The adoption of VSA will also promote sustainable development in oil palm plantations, he said.
