On the road to sustainable palm oil production in Cameroon
Photo by Mokhamad Edliadi/CIFOR. Although Cameroon, the largest palm oil producer in Central Africa, produced more than 450,000 tons in 2020, it still imports about 60,000 tons a year to meet its domestic demand. Most of the imported palm oil comes from Indonesia, Malaysia and Gabon. For several years, Cameroon has been faced with a dilemma
Palm Oil and deforestation in West Africa, this case study will focus only on challenges relating to food loss and waste. In Cameroon, the total area under the oil palm plantation is 200,000 hectares (ha). In 2019, the crude palm oil production (CPO) was 350,000 MT (Table 1) while the demand is much higher. For 2020, the
Case Study on Reducing Food Loss in Palm Oil in Cameroon
Cameroon is ‘Africa in miniature’ as it is home to 90% of Africa’s ecological systems. A large part of Cameroon is under the Congo basin, which holds over 15% of the world’s remaining tropical forests. In 2019, the crude palm oil (CPO) production in Cameroon was 350,000 MT while the demand is much higher, making Cameroon a net importer of palm oil. To meet the growing demand for palm
Palm oil is the major cooking oil in Cameroon, and crude palm oil (CPO) is an essential ingredient of many local recipes. However, the quality of this foodstuff is subject to doubt, considering
Assessment of the quality of crude palm oil from smallholders in Cameroon
Accepted 07 February, 2011. Oil palm is the highest oil producing plant, with an average yield of 3.5 tons of oil/ha/year. In 2006, palm oil became the world’s most important edible oil with 37
The oil palm tree is an ancient tropical plant that originated from West Africa. Palm oil has centuries long use as food and medicine. This review covers the recent significant materials found in the literature on palm oil processing, refining, and use in frying especially in blends with other vegetable oils.
Oil palm expansion in Cameroon: Insights into sustainability
In Cameroon, palm oil contributes to nearly 80% of edible oil demand, 30% of which is estimated to come from non-industrial mills (Frank et al., 2011). Red palm oil, the most widely consumed form, results from partially refined crude palm oil and is high in Vitamin E and alpha- and beta-carotene (Nagendran et al., 2000).
Palm oil (Elisguineensis) is a plant native to the countries bordering the Gulf of Guinea. Extracted from the pulp of the fruit, palm oil is rich in fatty saturated acids, and solid at room temperature. As all vegetable oils,palm oil does not contain cholesterol. Palm oil, with an annual global production of 50 million tons, equating to 39%
[PDF] Some quality parameters of crude palm oil from major markets
Palm oil is the major cooking oil in Cameroon, and crude palm oil (CPO) is an essential ingredient of many local recipes. However, the quality of this foodstuff is subject to doubt, considering the very often inadequate conditions of its extraction and storage in the fast growing small holder sector. In order to assess the quality of (CPO) available to Cameroonian consumers, 40 samples of this
Palm oil, derived from Elaeis guineensis, is a critical component of the global edible oil and industrial fat market. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the sustainability of the palm oil chain, focusing on industrial applications, environmental implications, and economic sustainability. The processing of palm oil, from fruit pulp to refined oil, is detailed, highlighting the
- What is oil palm production in Cameroon?
- Today oil palm cultivation and processing in Cameroon is carried out across a range of scales of production. Hereafter, we refer to mills owned and operated by agro-industrial companies as industrial mills. All other mills, referred to as non-industrial mills, vary widely in terms of design and operation.
- Does non-industrial oil palm development affect primary forests in Cameroon?
- Similarly, Ndjogui et al. (2016) found that 71% of smallholder oil palm plantations in Cameroon expanded into secondary forests, and 5% into intact forests. These findings suggest that non-industrial oil palm developments have a lesser impact on primary forests.
- Does clearing forest increase palm oil production in southwest Cameroon?
- We found that 73% of oil palm producers in Southwest Cameroon reported clearing forest to expand cultivation, based on a survey of 546 farms. The magnitude of expansion was explained by differences in palm oil milling strategies and supply chain integration.
- What are Luc dynamics for oil palm cultivation in Cameroon?
- LUC dynamics reported by the six mills for oil palm cultivation involved conversion from undisturbed forest, disturbed forest, tree crops like cocoa and sometimes, replanting of old oil palm stands. Studies have shown twice as much oil palm expansion into forests compared to other land use classes in Cameroon ( Ordway et al., 2019 ).
- How many oil palm plantations are there in Cameroon?
- In Cameroon, oil palm plantations cover more than 170,000 ha of national land, including 70,000 ha of industrial plantations and 100,000 ha of village plantations.
- Is there a potential oil palm yield gap in Cameroon?
- In Cameroon, we found that on-farm oil palm yields averaged 5¨C7 tons FFBs ha 1 throughout the study area and across producer groups, well below the 20 tons FFBs ha 1 potential yield for the country ( Nkongho et al., 2015 ). The large yield gap points to a major opportunity to increase production on existing oil palm fields.
