Oil palm production in Cameroon increased following the drop in the prices of cocoa and cofee in the early 1990s, which at that time were the majo. commercial farming crops in the country. This caused many smallholders in the ecologically suitable areas to switch.

In Cameroon, the first industrial plantation (Ferme Suisse) was developed in 1907/1909. By 1928 Pamol Plantations was created followed by the Cameroon Development Corporation (CDC) in 1947/1948, then Safacam in 1959 and lastly Socapalm in 1968 (Carrère, 2010). Such agro-industrial plantations exploit their own palms whose bunches are supplied

The palm oil milling process in palm oil mill comprises of grinding the palm kernels into small particles, heating (or cooking), and extracting the oil using an oilseed expeller or petroleum-derived solvent. The oil then requires clarification in a filter press or by sedimentation. Extraction is a well-established industry, with large numbers
FAQ
- QWhat is oil palm production in Cameroon?AToday 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.
- QDoes clearing forest increase palm oil production in southwest Cameroon?AWe found that 73% of oil palm producers in Southwest Cameroon reported clearing forest to expand cultivation, based on a survey of 546 farms. The magnitude of expansion was explained by differences in palm oil milling strategies and supply chain integration.
- QHow to place an order?AFirst pls contact us directly or send us an inquiry with your specific requirements, including the processing grain seeds, working hours, daily capacity, and etc., and our sales manager will contact you to provide custom solution.
- QHow many palm oil mills are there in Cameroon?AThere 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).
- QCan palm oil be produced (milled) in Cameroon?AIn Cameroon, there is palm oil milling carried out on a small scale (artisanal). [Reference: Afr. J. Agric. Res. 9, 1586–1596 (2014)]
- QWhat are Luc dynamics for oil palm cultivation in Cameroon?ALUC dynamics reported by the six mills for oil palm cultivation involved conversion from undisturbed forest, disturbed forest, tree crops like cocoa and sometimes, replanting of old oil palm stands. Studies have shown twice as much oil palm expansion into forests compared to other land use classes in Cameroon (Ordway et al., 2019).
- QDoes deforestation cause palm oil production in southwest Cameroon?ADeforestation in Southwest Cameroon for palm oil production is often attributed to large-scale, agro-industrial expansion. However, Ordway et al. reveal that much recent expansion can be attributed to non-industrial producers establishing near informal, non-industrial palm oil mills. Here,
