| Summary: | Environmental, social, and policy issues have presented numerous obstacles affecting the production, product quality, development, and business operations of the palm oil industry. This paper presents a systematic review of past literature to identify significant environmental issues and challenges faced by the palm oil industry to comprehend their impact on palm oil production, quantity, and quality. The PRISMA protocol was used, which resulted in eight articles for further review. These articles reported that climate change, a lack of land resources, and palm oil plantation diseases have been hampering the operation and production processes within the palm oil industry. These environmental issues have resulted in negative effects, such as decreased palm oil quantity and quality, deteriorated palm oil grade, and reduced annual production volume. Addressing these environmental threats requires joint efforts from the government, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and the community. © UMT Press
