  • Are new areas suitable for oil palm production in Uganda?
  • But with increasing demand for vegetable oils in Uganda more areas for oil palm production are required. A study was conducted to identify new areas suitable for oil palm production. The experiment was super-imposed on 45 × 45 m plots in 3-year old oil palm plantations in Bugiri, Buvuma, Kibaale and Masaka.
  • What are the major challenges facing oil palm in Uganda?
  • In Uganda, Fusarium wilt and Basal stem rot are the major challenges for oil palm production. These diseases have posed a threat to the oil palm industry, which is currently at an infant stage. Fusarium wilt is the most important disease of oil palm in Africa and is particularly notable in replanted fields.
  • Is Bugiri a potential area for oil palm production in Uganda?
  • But, yield in Bugiri was not significantly different from that of Buvuma and Kibaale but significantly (P < 0.05) higher than in Masaka. The findings on growth and yield of introduced oil palm crop revealed that Kibale, Buvuma and Bugiri are potential areas for oil palm production in Uganda.
  • What is oil palm research in Uganda?
  • Oil palm research in Uganda is spearheaded by the National Crop Resources Research Institute, NaCRRI. It is funded by the government of Uganda and International Fund for Agricultural Development, IFAD through the National Oil Palm Project, NOPP under the Ministry of Agriculture Animal Industry and Fisheries, MAAIF.
