Zakaria added that FGV will be announcing its financial result for the 4th quarter of 2016 and full year performance of 2016 after board meeting on February 22nd.
FGV carries out replanting process of average 16,000 hectare a year and for this year, approximately 70,000 hectares of replanting area would achieve mature stage.
