It\u2019s a disgrace that New Zealand dairy has any part in its destruction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cEvery year, the New Zealand dairy industry, led by Fonterra spends millions of dollars on palm kernel that comes from the destruction of once thriving rainforests.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>New Zealand is the world\u2019s biggest importer of palm kernel, importing nearly 2 million tonnes every year from Southeast Asia. Palm kernel is used as a supplementary feed for dairy cattle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ran.org\/leuser-watch\/orangutan-capital-under-siege\/\">A 2024 investigation<\/a> by Rainforest Action Network found that there are 653 hectares of illegal oil palm plantations operating in the Rawa Singkil Wildlife Reserve, 453 hectares of which are productive, meaning that illegal palm oil and palm kernel from these plantations is already being sold.<br><\/p>\n\n<p>Between 2023-2024, Apical and Musim Mas, two major palm kernel expeller (PKE) exporters to New Zealand, purchased palm kernel from PT. Global Sawit Semesta, a mill known to have traded palm products grown within the wildlife reserve.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cNew Zealand dairy is marketed as clean, green and grass-fed, but this is just simply not true.\u00a0 Fonterra\u2019s own grass-fed standard allows for its cows\u2019 diets to be made up of 20% palm kernel on a dry-matter basis,\u201d says Deighton-O\u2019Flynn.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cFonterra\u2019s butter and milk powder is contaminated with this blood-soaked animal feed and its executives are ignoring the severity of the issue.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>Two weeks ago, Greenpeace released <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/press-release\/fonterra-palm-kernel-supply-link-llegal-palm-operations-bad-news-for-nestle\/\">evidence that all five palm kernel suppliers exporting to New Zealand were complicit in illegally operating palm mills in Indonesia<\/a>. The organisation says this latest revelation is yet more evidence that the use of palm kernel as animal feed must be banned.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cFonterra has tried to avoid accountability on illegal palm kernel in its supply chain, by claiming that its suppliers have \u201cno deforestation, no peat and no exploitation\u201d policies, but it is abundantly clear that these policies aren\u2019t working. The rainforest is still being destroyed at an alarming rate,\u201d says Deighton-O\u2019Flynn.<br><\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cPalm kernel supply chains are incredibly murky. It is virtually impossible for Fonterra to guarantee that its supply chains are not linked to rainforest destruction, so Greenpeace is calling on Fonterra to completely phase out the use of palm kernel on all of its farms.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cNew Zealanders should not have to worry about whether the butter they\u2019re spreading on their toast is tainted by the killing of orangutans in Southeast Asia.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t<section\n\t\t\tclass=\"boxout post-66348  sticky-bottom-mobile collapse show\"\n\t\t\tid=\"action-card\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-category=\"Take Action Boxout\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-action=\"Image\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-label=\"n\/a\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"cover-card-overlay\"\n\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/petition\/petition-stop-fonterra-using-palm-kernel\/\" \n\t\t\t><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px-1024x684.jpg\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsrcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px-600x401.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px-510x340.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px.jpg 1200w\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 358px, (min-width: 780px) 313px, 88px\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\talt=\"Landcover, forest clearance and plantation development in PT Megakarya Jaya Raya (PT MJR) palm oil concession.
