PROWITRA merupakan respon dari Pusat Penelitian Kelapa Sawit (PPKS) terhadap keluhan petani tentang minimnya pengetahuan mereka tentang budidaya dan sulitnya mengakses benih kelapa sawit unggul. Kegiatan utama PROWITRA berupa sosialisasi benih sawit unggul, diseminasi penerapan kultur teknis, dan penjualan benih sawit unggul secara langsung ke sentra-sentra perkebunan rakyat.
Hadir sejak 2010, kegiatan PROWITRA telah menjangkau 16 provinsi yaitu Aceh, Sumatera Utara, Sumatera Barat, Riau, Jambi, Sumatera Selatan, Bengkulu, Lampung, Bangka Belitung, Kalimantan Barat, Kalimantan Timur, Kalimantan Tengah, Kalimantan Selatan, Kalimantan Utara, Sulawesi Barat, dan Sulawesi Tengah, dengan penyaluran benih unggul hingga Oktober 2019 telah mencapai 5,77 juta butir kecambah sawit.
