SEnSOR Project

The Socially and Environmentally Sustainable Oil palm Research (SEnSOR) programme aims to fill key knowledge gaps within the oil palm agricultural industry

New research from one of our SEnSOR-linked projects: Fleiss et al. investigate the potential co-benefits of conservation set-asides in @RSPOtweets oil palm plantations for biodiversity and carbon storage. https://t.co/lwYw05cyl8 #sustainablepalmoil @UniOfYork @JaneHillYork

"Wading through the swamp: what does tropical #peatlandrestoration mean to national level stakeholders in Indonesia?"- New paper from one of our SEnSOR-linked projects out now! @SEARRP @RSPOtweets https://t.co/KQPp3DOEuU

[SEnSOR Project @SensorProgramme]

At 4pm today our SEnSOR researcher @sascriven will be giving a talk @DICE_Kent about our work on improving biodiversity and connectivity in oil palm landscapes. Do go along if you’re free! @RSPOtweets @SEARRP @mattstruebig #sustainablepalmoil #oilpalmresearch #tropicalecology

Well done Dr Jen Lucey on her fascinating article in The Guardian on the importance of Knowledge Exchange and working with the Palm Oil Industry to promote conservation of biodiversity. #scienceimpacts #scienceforpolicy @SEARRP @NERCscience https://t.co/XQMNm4hyHg

[SEARRP @SEARRP]

Fascinating presentation from Dr Jen Lucey @SensorProgramme about if RSPO certification has an impact on Smallholders' decisions to expand or intensify production. #RSPO #rt16 #scienceimpacts

[Dr Eleanor Slade @eleslade.bsky.social @EleSlade]

So excited to be part of this #sciencepolicy exchange on #riparianreserves with the Sabah State government @HMTF_LOMBOK & @SEARRP https://t.co/sGZhgAMN8U

Dr @sascriven #RSPO recommendations-to minimise bioD losses in oil palm landscapes, high quality HCVs should be restored & digitised maps of HCVs should be made publically available to provide opportunities for connectivity to adjacent plantations

Dr @sascriven presenting her work for the @SensorProgramme on the impact of #RSPO membership on avoiding losses in oil palm landscapes. #RT15

[Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil @RSPOtweets]

Looking at HCV area size and quality, raises the question 'are #HCV areas large enough and of good enough quality to support #biodiversity?' #RT15

[Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil @RSPOtweets]

#HCV areas have the potential to improve connectivity if reforested - up to 2.7x better connected for some #species @sascriven #conservation #RT15

Interesting researching being presented by @sascriven looking at #HCV areas digitisation From RSPO NPP asesssment reports #RT15

.@sascriven presents impacts of #RSPO membership on avoiding #biodiversity losses, by looking at the role of High Conservation Value #RT15 @HCVNetwork @SEARRP

[Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil @RSPOtweets]

Forest patches with a core area of >200 ha could support 60-70% of #biodiversity in continuous #forest @sascriven #RT15 @SEARRP

[Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil @RSPOtweets]

HCV areas have greatest impacts in highly fragmented areas @sascriven @SEARRP #RT15 @HCVNetwork

Datuk @darrelwebb welcome address at #RT15 "Changing behaviour of the masses is difficult. A nudge just makes it easier for people to do the right thing, but we are committed to trying. "

“We should allow stakeholders to be the owners of change” @darrelwebb #RT15 #sustainable #palmoil #conservation

In China, we’ve made been making great strides with a strong increase in the number of #supplychain certified facilities there: 40% to be exact.” @darrelwebb #RT15 #RSPOImpacts

@darrelwebb The reality is - the biggest wins will not come from the “already good, becoming better”. It will come from the worst, raising their game.” @darrelwebb #RT15
