As noted by Makafui, though Ghana’s palm oil production is said to have increased over the decades, the country is a net importer of palm oil. In 2021, the value of palm oil imported by Ghana was $289million as against an export value of $78.1million. This calls for urgent attention to address the challenges in the sector.

FAQ
- QAre small-scale palm oil processing mills causing environmental problems in Ghana?AThe environmental impact of small-scale palm oil processing mills in Ghana has come under serious questioning, especially the disposal of wastewater generated from their operations.
- QWhat type of palm oil is produced in Ghana?AArtisanal and small-scale palm oil producers occupy a greater share of Ghana’s palm oil processing industry, producing 60–80% of the country’s palm oil. However, the current processing systems used by the palm oil producers are mainly the traditional metal cooking pots and steel tanks.
- Qls the product 100% assembled?AYes, all the products are 190% assembled.
- QAre wastewater treatment technologies applicable to small-scale palm oil processing mills in Ghana?AAdditional studies are needed in other palm oil production regions of Ghana to generate national-level data. This will guide the development of a compendium of wastewater treatment technologies applicable to small-scale processing mills in Ghana. The authors have no conflicts of interest to declare that are relevant to the content of this article.
- QWhat are the environmental problems associated with small-scale palm oil production?AThis chapter describes the small-scale palm oil production operations in Ghana to highlight the associated environmental problems arising from the disposal of wastewater and other waste by-products.
- QHow many palm oil mills are there in Ghana?AAvailable data shows that there were more than 1200 small-scale mills in Ghana [ 11] producing 60–80% of the national palm oil production [ 2, 15 ]. By 2015, the small-scale industry was employing over 2 million people [ 4] mostly in rural areas. 2. The problem and contribution of the chapter
- QWhy is palm oil a problem in Ghana?AA large percentage of the palm oil produced by small-scale processors cannot be utilized by the larger scale industries in Ghana or abroad because of its poor quality. There is an urgent need to explore the causes and to identify ways to address the situation.
