  • When did oil palm grow in South Cameroon?
  • Oil palm expansion in Southwest Cameroon was mapped from 2000 to 2015 - a period of national growth in production and area expansion of the crop (Fig. 1 ). To classify oil palm, forest, and other land cover, we used 30 m resolution Landsat satellite data.
  • What drives oil palm expansion in Cameroon?
  • Third, oil palm expansion in Cameroon is predominantly driven by non-industrial producers and coordinated around a burgeoning informal milling sector ( Ordway et al., 2019 ). Cameroon can thus be looked upon as a major region of growth when it comes to oil palm production and expansion in Africa.
  • Why is oil palm deforestation a problem in Cameroon?
  • By José Sebastião Cidreira Vieira, Wilame Silva Castr... Since 1990, oil palm cultivation, because nibbling large zones in dense forest areas of Cameroon, becomes the main driver of deforestation. It leads to the loss of plant and animal biodiversity as well as engaging soils and water pollution, which raises questions about its sustainability.
  • 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.
