“Adaro has a concept of kelulut honey cultivation in its post mining research and development area. We then applied this concept to the Istana Kelulut, an MSME fostered by our CSR in Balangan District,” she expounded.
The Istana Kelulut development program, Leni said, has succeeded in becoming one ofthe mainstay in Adaro's Environment Social Innovation by changing the changing the method of cultivating kelulut honey in the community, which originally use tree-cutting pattern to sustainable cultivation through artificial nets.
“In addition, through this program, Adaro has succeeded in introducing good manufacturing practice concept through the innovation of automatic harvesting machine, packaging improvements, as well as completing marketing permits,” she explained.
During the pandemic, Adaro took the initiative to help MSMEs cultivating kelulut to survive by making large orders of their products, then distributing them to vulnerable groups in the company's operational areas as an immune supplement.
One of the groups were children who live in the Nurul Yaqin Orphanage in Inan Village, Paringin Selatan Sub-district, Balangan, South Kalimantan.
“Seeing the economic potential and benefits of kelulut honey, Adaro and Istana Kelulut then pushed the initiative for cooperation of kelulut cultivation at the Nurul Yaqin orphanage, so that it is hoped that it will not only meet the need of honey for the orphanage, but can also boost the economic aspect of the orphanage,” said Leni.
