  • What equipment is used in oil palm farming?
  • Field machinery during the oil palm farming stage. This includes machinery for field ploughing (such as tractors), irrigation, fertilizer and pesticides application, harvesting/lifting machines, trailers etc. These are big machines. Palm oil processing and refinery machinery.
  • How many litres of oil a year does a palm plant produce?
  • Similar low productivity levels have been reported for oil palm in Kigoma and Mbeya, whereby under current farming conditions one Dura plant yields 7-8 litres of palm oil/year; and, a plant of Tenera yields 28 litres/year. As for avocados, there is no single company in Tanzania which processes avocados to produce edible oils.
  • How is crude palm oil stored in a tricanter?
  • Before the crude palm oil (CPO) is ready for storage in the clear oil tank and further processing in the refinery and fractionation plant (see ‘Investment programme’), it passes through a vacuum dryer to reduce the moisture content in order to slow down hydrolysis and oxidation. The bottom phase is the sludge which goes into the tricanter.
  • How much oil is extracted from a bunch of palm kernels?
  • The oil palm produces bunches containing many fruits with the fleshy mesocarp enclosing a kernel that is covered by a very hard shell. FAO considers palm oil (coming from the pulp) and palm kernels to be primary products19. The oil extraction rate from a bunch varies from 17 to 27% for palm oil, and from 4 to 10% for palm kernels or ‘Misse’.
