Surjit Singh, a Ugandan of Asian origin, started as a small scale seed oil processor in Kampala. But when he shifted to Lira, he discovered the shea nut tree and its treasures.
Local communities extract oil from the shea nuts and sell it in the markets of Lira Town. However, Ojok points out the existing gaps in the marketing of shea nuts, resulting

Solvent extraction with optimized parameters, n-hexane as solvent, particle size of shea kernel of 2.06 mm, and extraction temperature of 68 °C, lead to a higher yield
The results showed that extracting methods of Shea nut oil have a significant effect (p<0.05) on moisture content, protein, free fatty acid, saponification, viscosity, melting

- How to optimise shea butter production by mechanical extraction?
- Shea butter (SB) production by mechanical extraction (ME) was optimised by box-behnken (BB) experimental design of response surface methodology (RSM). The process parameters studied (with their ranges) were sample weight (100 – 200 g), temperature (60 – 120C) and duration of applied pressure (10 – 30 min) to optimise the yield of SB.
- How to extract shea butter in Ghana?
- Recent studies by Didia et al. (2018) suggest that enzymes technology is the way for shea butter extraction in Ghana. An aliquot equivalent to 50 g of shea nut biomass in 600 mL beaker was stirred with water in the ratio of 1:4 wt/vol and treated with commercial enzymes at optimized conditions.
- How to extract oil from roasted shea nut paste?
- Moreover, through laboratory tests, Didia et al. ( 2018) reported that pulverizing roasted shea nut paste with the combination of lipases, pectinases, and cellulases on a volume proportion of 1:1:1 at 60 °C for 2 h of hydrolysis offers the best oil yield extraction level ranging up to 70%.
