PALMOILMAGAZINE, MUARA TEWEH The Regent of Barito Utara, H. Nadalsyah, marked the commencement of construction for a palm oil mill in the village of Bintang Ninggi I, Subdistrict of Teweh Selatan. This initiative responds to the growing interest among the residents of Barito Utara in palm oil cultivation, aiming to boost the production and processing of fresh fruit bunches (FFB).
Following suggestions, Barito Utara provided an opportunity for the investor, PT. Muara Teweh Argo Jaya Utama, to undertake the construction of the mill. Nurman, the Director of PT. Muara Teweh Argo Jaya Utama, and General Manager Jaya Irianto expressed their hopes that the palm oil mill’s presence would have significant impacts, particularly in providing employment and enhancing the local economy in the District of Barito Utara.
“With our pleasure, we would accomplish palm oil mill construction for our older people here in Village Bintang Ninggi I for every party and other related instances. Hopefully, everything runs well as we hoped for,” Nurman said, as Palmoilmagazine.com quoted from the official page of the District of Barito Utara.
