OVERVIEW OF OIL PALM PRODUCTION

Economics of Palm Oil Processing in Southwestern Nigeria

Challenges Facing Palm Oil Industry

  • Is small-scale palm oil processing feasible in Nigeria?
  • Palm oil is a major food and non-food ingredient consumed by virtually everyone in Nigeria through the use of palm oil related products. This study investigates the feasibility of small-scale palm oil processing in Nigeria, using Elele, Rivers State as case study. Information was elicited through interviews and physical observations.
  • Where does palm oil come from in Nigeria?
  • In Nigeria, 80% of palm oil production comes from dispersed smallholders who harvest semi-wild plants and use manual processing techniques (Olagunju, 2008). According to Olagunju (2008), among the small-scale producers, traditional, or semi mechanized methods were used for oil extraction from the fresh fruit bunch.
  • Is palm olein tainted in Nigeria?
  • Presently, crude palm oil is imported for refining in Nigeria, although some quantities of refined bleached and deodorized palm olein are being disguised as crude palm oil and acid oils. Sometimes RBD palm olein is tainted with about 0.03% of crude palm olein and imported into the country as crude palm oil.
  • Why is palm oil declining in Nigeria?
  • The fortunes of Nigeria's palm oil production plunged as a result of the discovery of crude oil and this has caused a major decline in the processing of palm oil in Nigeria, with attendant negative implications on the nation's micro and macro economics.
