BRIEF STORY
Kalimantan Date Palm Association (KDPA-Indonesia) or Asosiasi Kurma Kalimantan is an association engaged in the plantation sector, particularly specializing in date palm cultivation. The Kalimantan Date Palm Association was first established on July 19, 2019, in Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan.
However, in line with the planned relocation of the capital city of the Republic of Indonesia to East Kalimantan, the head office, which was originally based in Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan, was moved to Samarinda, East Kalimantan.
Various varieties of date palms are being developed through seed propagation, offshoot cultivation, as well as imported tissue culture. In addition, the Kalimantan Date Palm Association has established an Information and Study Center located in Kutai Timur Regency, East Kalimantan, serving as a hub for date palm farmers and the community, particularly students, academics, and researchers.
