“…The term smallholder covers a wide variety of different oil palm models. However, both official statistics, and a sizable fraction of research studies, report smallholder oil palm as a single entity ( Jelsma et al, 2017 ; Schoneveld et al, 2019a , Schoneveld et al, 2019b ; Purwanto et al, 2020 ).
