Process flow diagramme for refining of sunflower oil. Degumming. The crude oil in the open conical tank was heated to 45 °C and degummed by adding 0.2 % phosphoric acid (50 % w/w strength) with slow agitation for 30 min. Then the oil was settled for 30 min and the water with dissolved gum was drained out.

- How much does Naomi kamuwikeni sell a bag of sunflower?
- Mrs Kamuwikeni can sell a 25-kg bag of sunflower for 150 Zambia Kwacha ($6.60 US). Or she can process that bag into 10 litres of cooking oil and sell it for 430 Kwacha ($19 US). It’s seven o’clock in the morning and Naomi Kamuwikeni is quickly walking to the oil expeller at Gondar market. She is carrying sunflowers to process into oil.
- How much is a bag of sunflower worth in Zambia?
- Most farmers prefer to sell their sunflower as seeds and grain rather than process it because they receive sales income immediately. But now that Mrs. Kamuwikeni is adding value to her sunflower harvest, she is making twice the money she used to make. A bag of sunflower weighing 25 kilograms is sold at 150 Zambia Kwacha (about $6.60 US).
- Why should we invest in sunflower oil in Tanzania?
- Investment in sunflower oil production locally could therefore provide competition against imported oil. One reason for encouraging the greater production and processing of sunflower oil in Tanzania is thus its potential for import substitution, which could generate income and jobs at home and have a beneficial impact on foreign- exchange outflows.
- Can mmmz make sunflower oil more widely available in Zambia?
- The company will buy all sunflower produced by contracted out-growers. MMMZ wants to make sunflower oil more widely available in Zambia through this project. Sunflower oil is more nutritious than other edible oils and if processed from locally produced seed can be sold at prices which are affordable to low-income consumers.
