  • How oil seeds research & development works in Nigeria?
  • Currently, oilseeds research and development work across Nigeria is leading to increase productivity and efficiency of oil seeds processing ?soybean and peanut particularly. FAS Lagos’ estimates and projections for all the categories of oil seeds and products for 2021/22 are higher than the USDA estimates of previous year.
  • How are Nigeria’s oil seeds & products markets changing?
  • Nigeria’s oil seeds and products markets are changing rapidly as demographic changes occur due to the country’s youth and middle-class population growth. The three major utilization channels (Food consumption, industrial use, and feed usage) are undergoing robust growth rates.
  • How do you extract oil from seeds?
  • The two most common processes to extract oil for most seeds, beans, and nuts is the Full Press Extraction Process where mechanical screw presses are used to extract the oil by squeezing the oil under high pressure, and the Preparation/Solvent Extraction Process where a solvent is mixed with the material to separate the oil.
  • Why is Nigeria increasing its production of consumer-oriented processed food products?
  • Nigeria is increasing its production of consumer-oriented processed food products by utilizing palm kernel component for both domestic consumption and for export. Reportedly rising income-levels in Asian countries is resulting in increased demand for packaged foods with high palm and palm kernel oil content.
