According to data from the Ministry of Agriculture processed by the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), Indonesia's palm oil production volume in 2022 reached 45.58 million tons.

The province with the largest palm oil production is Riau, with a production volume of approximately 8.9 million tons.

Other provinces classified as the largest national palm oil producers are Central Kalimantan, North Sumatra, West Kalimantan, and South Sumatra.

Meanwhile, the smallest palm oil production is found in Riau Islands, North Maluku, Maluku, Gorontalo, Banten, and West Java.

Provinces with no palm oil production 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.

BPS also recorded that in 2022, Indonesia had 14.9 million hectares (ha) of palm oil plantations.

However, according to the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment, Luhut Pandjaitan, that figure is not entirely accurate. Many palm oil lands are also untaxed.

"Palm oil reports (an area of) 14.6 million hectares. After our audit, I only learned 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 haven't paid taxes; we're pursuing that now," he added.

The Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) also 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.
