Oil palm expansion in Cameroon: Insights into sustainability

  • Can Cameroon increase palm oil production?
  • The Government of Cameroon set a target of nearly doubling palm oil production from 250,000 tons in 2015 to 450,000 tons by 2020 ( Hoyle and Levang, 2012 ). In response, a National Strategy is being drafted to identify mechanisms for increasing production in a socially and environmentally sustainable manner.
  • 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.
  • Can RSPO palmghg be used in Cameroon?
  • The RSPO PalmGHG tool can be modified to suit specifics of different countries around the world, which creates an opportunity to test it in Cameroon. Cameroon is one of Africa's top palm oil producers producing about 269,000 tons of palm oil in 2018 with an average growth rate of 3.5 % per year in the last decade (FAO, 2019).
  • Is there a potential oil palm yield gap in Cameroon?
  • In Cameroon, we found that on-farm oil palm yields averaged 5–7 tons FFBs ha −1 throughout the study area and across producer groups, well below the 20 tons FFBs ha −1 potential yield for the country ( Nkongho et al., 2015 ). The large yield gap points to a major opportunity to increase production on existing oil palm fields.
