Data from the Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) shows that large-scale plantations in Indonesia were dominated by oil palm in 2023. The area covered reached 9.14 million hectares (ha), an increase of 569,800 ha from the previous year's 8.57 million ha.

BPS defines large-scale plantations as plantation businesses conducted by business entities on state land with business permits from the relevant authorities. Areas outside this definition fall under the category of smallholder plantations.

Rubber ranked second, covering 297,400 ha. This was followed by sugarcane and tea, with areas of 2.06 million ha and 50,700 ha respectively last year.

Coffee was planted on 19,800 ha, cocoa on 5,100 ha, and tobacco on 700 ha. Meanwhile, BPS did not record the area of large-scale plantations planted with cinchona (quina) last year.

It should be noted that BPS records the area of rubber, oil palm, cocoa, coffee, and cinchona annually, as these commodities are typically planted at the end of the year.

Sugarcane and tobacco, on the other hand, are seasonal crops, and their plantation areas are calculated cumulatively on a monthly basis.
