    According to Nepstad (2016) people in poor, rural communities are likely to clear trees by burning them in order to make the land fertile. Forcing these farmers to cease clearing land would further impoverish them. General Mills can further prevent deforestation by working together with these small-scale farmers. Currently, General Mills is part of Field to Market, an alliance of organizations that aspires to create opportunity in agricultural supply chains by promoting improvements in productivity, environmental quality, and human well-being (Field to Market, 2016). In allegiance with Field to Market, General Mills can introduce the knowledge, skills and technology required by farmers in order to sustainably produce palm oil. General Mills would be able to closely monitor where their palm oil comes from and be certain that the oil does not come from illegal farming sites. They would also be assured of the quality of the palm oil and that the human rights of the indigenous population are not being threatened. By promoting sustainability, many corporations receive long-term results such as “greater access to capital, reduced operating costs, improved financial performance, and enhanced brand image” (Rondinelli & London, 2001, 5).

    Palm oil is a vegetable oil that can be eaten that comes from fruit plantations, grown over staple African palm oil. Palm oil comes from West Africa, but can flourish wherever heat and rainfall are abundant. Today, oil palm planted throughout Africa, Asia, North America and South America. All global palm oil produced and exported from Indonesia and Malaysia but most of the time not using sustainable measures. From my views, in the formation of the oil palm industry it would apply to major issues such as the uprooting of forests, habitat degradation, climate change and the violation of such rights of indigenous peoples in the countries where it is produced.
