  • Is small-scale palm oil processing feasible in Nigeria?
  • Palm oil is a major food and non-food ingredient consumed by virtually everyone in Nigeria through the use of palm oil related products. This study investigates the feasibility of small-scale palm oil processing in Nigeria, using Elele, Rivers State as case study. Information was elicited through interviews and physical observations.
  • Can small scale oil palm processing oil be established in Akwa Ibom State?
  • This feasibility report makes a case for the establishment of small scale oil palm processing oil (the Mill) in Akwa Ibom State along Calabar-Itu road. This feasibility report makes a case for the establishment of small scale oil palm processing oil (the Mill) in Akwa Ibom State along Calabar-Itu road, and in-between Mbak Atai and the Head Bridge.
  • How much does a small-scale palm oil processing mill cost?
  • The findings show that the average cost of procuring equipment and its installations for a small-scale palm oil processing mill were estimated at N623,650.00. The gross margin return from this study was N44,000.00 while net return was N14,000.00.
  • Where is palm oil processed in Nigeria?
  • One of Wacapol¡¯s installations presently run at Weppa farm in Edo state, Nigeria. Hence palm oil processing in the region operates in two sub-sectors which are largely separate, with each satisfying its own market. Thus the crude palm oil (CPO) processed and the quantity of free fatty acid. The minimum requirement for SPO is an FFA content of less
  • Why is palm oil a problem in Nigeria?
  • In addition, during processing, outdated equipment is mostly used. This method of oil palm processing is arduous, time consuming and oil yield is usually low. Often, about 25% - 75% of potential palm oil is lost during processing (Ekine and Onu, 2008). Elevated cost of procuring equipment is a serious problem in Nigeria (Orewa, 1998).
  • What should a small scale oil palm mill produce?
  • The proposed small scale oil palm mill should produce crude palm oil (CPO), palm kernel oil (PKO), and palm kernel cake (PKC). It is assumed that the raw materials ¨C palm fruits and palm kernel nuts ¨C are available in adequate quantities to sustain the proposed mill. It is equally assumed that there are ready markets for the CPO, PKO, and PKC.
