  • Is virgin coconut oil a threat to Nigeria's agro-based livelihood?
  • Throughout the years, coconut farming has been an important component of agriculture in the municipality (Ghana Statistical Service [GSS], 2014). However, virgin coconut oil (VCO) processing, which is a major agro-based livelihood activity in the municipality, is being threatened by the direct export of coconuts from the municipality by Nigerians.
  • How did coconut processing work?
  • Processors who worked full time, from the production of coconut milk to the boiling of the oil, shared the profits accrued from the oil production with the coconut farmer or trader. This was after the cost of production, including transportation of the coconut meat, cost of water and cost of coconut milling had been paid for.
  • Do coconut exports lead to competition between local coconut processors and international market?
  • Coconut exports from coconut-producing countries bring about competition between local coconut processors and the international market. This study examined the labour dynamics, opportunities, challenges, and sustainability of virgin coconut oil (VCO) processing businesses in the wake of coconut exports from the Jomoro Municipality, Ghana.
  • Should Ghana invest in coconut processing?
  • On the basis of the findings, the study recommends that the government of Ghana, through the Ministry of Trade and Industry should consider investing in the processing of coconuts in the Municipality under the One District-One Factory project to employ the local people.
