Preamble

Sustainable palm oil production is comprised of legal, economically viable, environmentally
appropriate and socially beneficial management and operations. This is delivered through the
application of the following set of Principles and Criteria, and the accompanying Indicators
and Guidance.

The first set of Principles & Criteria, Indicators and Guidance (P&C 2007) have been applied
since November 2007. These had been subject to trial implementation from November
2005 to November 2007 and in a number of countries to a subsequent process of National
Interpretation. After five years of application by RSPO members, P&C 2007 were reviewed in
2012-2013 by the RSPO Principles and Criteria Review Taskforce.
