Experiences of Palmeras de Puerto Wilches Suplier Service and Attention Unit (SSAU/USAP- in Spanish) in Favor of the Productive Improvement of the Strategic Allies and the Assurance of Raw Material for the Mill

Palmeras de Puerto Wilches S. A. (PPW), over the years, has strengthened its technical assistance unit to su- pport its loyal producers by promoting the implementation of the best sustainable agronomic practices (BSAP) and by facilitating the services and supplies that are required for the adoption of technologies, to increase productivity and consolidate the Company-Farmer commercial link. In addition to the constant, timely and quality assurance of fresh fruit bunches (FFB-RFF in Spanish) to the benefit plant. The methodology used in this experience is based on the identification of loyal producers, their characte- rization, identification, and creation of strategies to overcome the limitations found and an economic analysis that allows sustaining the continuity of the Supplier Service and Attention Unit (SSAU). In 2021, PPW had 195 loyal suppliers, distributed in 8 municipalities in the departments of Santander, Norte de Santander and Cesar, representing 97% of the total annual fruit processed in the processing plant. In 2018, the Technological Balance Index (TBI) had a gap of 60%, reducing it to 40% in 2020, and achieving an increase in average productivity of 28% in 2020, compared to 2018, going from 10.8 to 13.9 t FFB/ha* year respectively. These results have allowed to the SSAU to continue betting on the approach of the mega goal proposed by the guild of 5 t Crude Palm Oil (CPO)/ha* year.
