Oil palm in the 2020s and beyond: challenges and solutions

  • Can Pakistan produce palm oil?
  • Although the cost of production of palm oil in Pakistan shall be very high in comparison to Malaysia’s and Indonesia’s, yet it is feasible, because of the production of crude palm oil, refineries shall start processing and Pakistan shall be able to cater its domestic palm oil requirements to a great extent.
  • What is the palm oil refining industry in Pakistan?
  • In 2006, the palm oil refining industry in Pakistan started Malaysian-Pakistan joint venture company i.e. Mapak Edible Oils in Port Qasim. Since then the industry has grown and Pakistan at this moment has more than 15 palm oil refineries with a total production capacity of more than 5,250 tons/day.
  • Is palm oil a burden for Pakistan?
  • Thus, palm oil can be a burden for Pakistan if imported without intervention on an international level and can be a breather if the crude palm is imported and utilized effectively to meet the edible oil requirements until Pakistan becomes self-sufficient in oilseed production and solvent extraction.
  • Why does Pakistan import palm oil & soybeans?
  • Pakistan’s major imports of palm oil and soybean are a result of increasing per capita consumption of edible oil currently standing at 24 kg (Rehman, 2020). The agriculture sector struggles to cater to the domestic demand for edible oil and is highly dependent on the imports of oilseeds and refined palm oil.
