CASE STUDY ON REDUCING FOOD LOSS IN PALM OIL

  • 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).
  • 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.
  • When did NBPOL start producing palm oil?
  • NBPOL established our palm oil production in 1998 along with an existing cattle herd of 460 breeders. At this time, NBPOL introduced the concept of half-stand oil palm planting. While a full-stand system has a palm density of 128 trees per hectare, a half stand has only 72 trees per hectare.
  • How many palm oil plants does NBPOL have?
  • NBPOL has over 146,000 hectares of land bank, of which just over 90,000 hectares are planted with oil palm. We operate over 50 estates, 13 palm oil mills and seven kernel crushing mills. Until 2018/19, NBPOL owned palm oil refineries in Liverpool in the United Kingdom, and WNB.
