Collectors load palm-oil fruits onto a truck in Patumbak, North Sumatra, Indonesia, on June 3, 2025, highlighting their key role in connecting smallholders to processing plants within the palm oil supply chain. This activity reflects the dynamics of Indonesia’s palm oil sector, the world’s largest, accounting for over 50% of global production and exports. Driven by demand across food, cosmetics, soap, and biofuels, palm oil remains the most productive and competitive vegetable oil, with export volumes expected to stay strong in 2025 despite rising domestic consumption—underscoring the critical function of collectors in maintaining the flow from plantations to global markets.

Mount Fanjing Matcha Industry - China

A drone photo shows a farmer weeding at a tea garden in Jiangkou County of Tongren, southwest China's Guizhou Province, on April 16, 2025. Located at the foot of Mount Fanjing, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Jiangkou County is a powerhouse in the world's matcha industry. The county boasts over 10,000 hectares of tea plantations, nearly a fifth of which are dedicated to matcha production. In 2024, Jiangkou County produced more than 1,200 tonnes of matcha with a total output value of 350 million yuan (about 48.02 million U.S. dollars). The local matcha products have been exported to more than 40 overseas markets. Experts and agronomists believe that Guizhou, located on a plateau, possesses geographical and climatic advantages such as high altitude, low latitude, abundant fog and limited sunlight ideal for growing tea. Therefore, tea produced in this area is green, ecological and organic. Photo by Ou Dongqu/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM
