The non-industrial palm oil sector in Cameroon
significant number of palm oil producers and present a longstanding historical relationship between smallholders and major agro-industrial companies like the Cameroon Development Cooperation (CDC), Pamol and Socapalm. Four major palm oil production basins were developed in relation to the three major palm oil companies. These basins

Although Cameroon, the largest palm oil producer in Central Africa, produced more than 450,000 tons in 2020, it still imports about 60,000 tons a year to meet its domestic demand. Most of the imported palm oil comes from Indonesia, Malaysia and Gabon.
Oil Palm Development in Cameroon
In 2011, Malaysia (18.7 M tons) and Indonesia (25.4 M tons) count for 87% of the world’s palm oil production of 50 million tons, with very few other countries producing even one million tons – see figure 1. In Africa the main producers are Nigeria, DRC, Ghana and Ivory Coast. Cameroon currently (2010) produces an estimated 230,000 tons
Cameroon is an important location to understand the drivers of oil palm production among non-industrial producers for several reasons. First, oil palm production in Cameroon has an import substitution advantage. Oil palm can be regarded as a strategic crop with the opportunity to leverage the import-export equilibrium.
Cameroon creates national platform to govern the sustainable
The Republic of Cameroon has committed to the long-term governance of the sustainable development of palm oil with a national platform. The platform, PLANHUPAD, was created to ensure the continuing viability of commitments made as part of the African Palm Oil Initiative. H. E.

As shown in Table 1, oil palm producers in Cameroon can be largely divided into three categories: on- n industrial smallholder farmers, advanced nonindustrial farmers, and agro- industrial/plantation farmers., Non-industrial smallholder f armers contribute half towards the total CPO production and use 70% of the oil palm area planted in
As demand continues to rise, producers are seeking to expand production in West and Central Africa. Up to 20 million hectares of new oil palm plantations could be established in this region over the next decade. In Cameroon’s forested zone alone, over 1 million hectares is now being targeted by oil palm companies.
Palm oil in Cameroon – ‘a blessing or a curse’ to small-scale farmers?
To understand the current state of small-scale oil palm farming in Cameroon, Nkongho and his colleagues talked to 176 growers, cutting across socio-economic classes, from four centers for palm oil
(Business in Cameroon), Between 2014 and 2018, Cameroon’s palm oil production recorded a notable rise from 343,000 tons to 413,000 tons, the ministry of agriculture reveals. For the ministry, this production is closer to the target of 450,000 tons by 2020.
