According to data from the Ministry of Agriculture processed by the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), in 2022 Indonesia had 14.9 million hectares (ha) of palm oil plantations.

The largest palm oil plantations are located in Riau Province, West Kalimantan, Central Kalimantan, North Sumatra, and East Kalimantan.

Meanwhile, the provinces with the smallest palm oil plantations are North Maluku, Riau Islands, Maluku, West Java, and Gorontalo.

Provinces without palm oil plantations are DKI Jakarta, Central Java, Yogyakarta Special Region, East Java, Bali, West Nusa Tenggara, East Nusa Tenggara, and North Sulawesi, as shown in the graph.

Recently, the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment, Luhut Pandjaitan, stated that approximately 9 million hectares of palm oil land are untaxed.

"Palm oil is reported to cover 14.6 million hectares. After our audit, I only found out that 7.3 million hectares pay taxes," said Luhut, as reported by *JawaPos.com*, Thursday (11/5/2023).

"I ordered (BPKP) to audit all palm oil permits. It turns out that palm oil permits cover 20.4 million hectares. Of that, 16.8 million hectares are planted. So, 9 million hectares are untaxed, and we are now pursuing that," he added.

The Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) stated that it will follow up on these allegations.

"Currently, the DJP is conducting clarifications regarding the difference in area (of palm oil land)," said the Director of Dissemination, Services, and Public Relations of the DJP, Dwi Astuti, as reported by *CNNIndonesia.com*, Wednesday (10/5/2023).

"If this difference in area results in potential income tax (PPh) and value-added tax (PPN), it will be followed up according to the applicable regulations," she continued.
