Oil palm expansion in Cameroon: Insights into

Complexities of sustainable palm oil production

Using role-play to explore strategies for improving palm

  • 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.
  • What is oil palm production in Cameroon?
  • Today oil palm cultivation and processing in Cameroon is carried out across a range of scales of production. Hereafter, we refer to mills owned and operated by agro-industrial companies as industrial mills. All other mills, referred to as non-industrial mills, vary widely in terms of design and operation.
  • How many oil palm plantations are there in Cameroon?
  • In Cameroon, oil palm plantations cover more than 170,000 ha of national land, including 70,000 ha of industrial plantations and 100,000 ha of village plantations.
  • Does palm oil expansion & deforestation affect Informal mills in South Cameroon?
  • Ordway, EM., Naylor, RL., Nkongho, RN., Lambin, EF. (2019) Oil palm expansion and deforestation in Southwest Cameroon are associated with the Proliferation of informal mills.
