Palm and Palm Kernel Oil Production and Processing in Nigeria

Nigeria battles to revive ailing oil palm sector

  • How much palm kernel oil is produced in Nigeria?
  • A paid subscription is required for full access. In 2023, the production of palm kernel oil in Nigeria was estimated to be 393 thousand metric tons. Between 2010 and 2023, the crop of palm kernel oil in the country increased by 88 thousand metric tons.
  • Why do Nigerian refineries use palm kernel oil?
  • More than 60% of refineries in Nigeria are built on palm kernel oil as raw materials. This is because processing of palm kernel oil involves degumming, bleaching, deodorization, cooling, and packaging. This product is liquid at ambient conditions except during the rainy season when the product congeals due to low temperatures (<20°C).
  • What if Nigeria kept its market dominance in the palm oil industry?
  • According to the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), if Nigeria had maintained its market dominance in the palm oil industry, the country would have been earning approximately $20 billion annually from cultivation and processing of palm oil as at today. To meet the supply gap of palm oil, the country had to depend on importation over the years.
  • Will Nigeria's palm kernel oil start stocks in 2021/22?
  • FAS Lagos forecast Nigeria’s palm kernel oil beginning stocks in MY 2021/22 at 3,000 metric tons (MT) unchanged from the USDA official MY 2020/21 estimate. Processors expect some increases in demand/price for palm kernel oil, especially for industrial uses (including usage as biofuel), in the upcoming marketing year.
