The pioneering project of the development of Kenaf Integrated Park (KIP) in the Chuping Valley and the Village Growth Center (PPD) of Batu Bertangkup, Chuping, Perlis aims to integrate the components of the kenaf production chain under one roof. Based on the concept of “From Farm to Market” (seeds to market), KIP is a focal point that connects all kenaf production activities starting from kenaf cultivation (upstream sector), processing of plant products (middle sector) to the production and marketing of kenaf-based products (downstream sector).
KIP’s workforce includes kenaf growers, fiber and seed producers, entrepreneurs and workers in the Kenaf People’s Scheme (KUR) processing plant, premium fiber production site workers, kenaf pulp mill workers, kenaf product small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) entrepreneurs and workers, and private companies for marketing of kenaf-based products.
