  • How is palm oil produced in Ghana?
  • Artisanal production of palm oil is common in Ghana, providing a key staple food stuff in most traditional cooking. Palm oil is traditionally, and still industrially, produced by milling the fruits of oil palm. [ 24] Besides milling, palm oil is produced by cold-pressing the fruit of the oil palm since the 1990s.

  • Humans used oil palms as far back as 5,000 years. In the late 1800s, archaeologists discovered a substance that they concluded was originally palm oil in a tomb at Abydos dating back to 3,000 BCE. [ 10] Palm oil from Elaeis guineensis has long been recognized in West and Central African countries, used widely as a cooking oil.
