Oil depletion and development in Cameroon: A critical

  • Does Cameroon need more palm oil?
  • Cameroon's current palm oil production still does not meet its current demand as about 21 % of the palm oil used is imported (FAO, 2019). The government of Cameroon's 2030 national development plan involves increasing current palm oil production at a rate yet to be determined.
  • How many palm oil mills are there in Cameroon?
  • There are currently about 498 palm oil mills in the South West Region (largest palm oil producing region) of Cameroon alone, of which only 5 are fully automated/ industrial mills (Ordway et al., 2019).
  • Why is global demand for palm oil increasing in Cameroon?
  • Global demand for palm oil has been continuously increasing and this demand has been met by expansion of oil palm plantations. In Cameroon as other parts of Africa, smallholder growers are increasingly occupying more cultivated oil palm area than agro-industrial companies.
  • 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.
