The politics of policy failure in Ghana: The case of oil palm
Highlights. •. Oil palm, which has been one of the most important cash crops in Ghana since independence, has continued to underperform in spite of the sustained policy attention devoted to it. •. The value chain has two separate segments in the value chain, each with its own internal organization.
Policy Briefing Paper Bioenergy in the Palm Oil Processing Sector in Ghana The residues generated by Ghana’s large palm oil sector offer significant potential for producing bioenergy. The country’s six largest palm oil processors (Figure 1)1 meet the bulk of their
Small-Scale Palm Oil Production in Ghana: Practices, Environmental Problems and Potential Mitigating Measures, IntechOpen
The 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. This 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. The chapter
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.

A review of the literature shows that both dry and wet methods of palm oil extraction are used by small-scale processing mills in Ghana (Poku 2002; Adjei-Nsiah et al. 2012; Osei-Amponsah et al. 2012).

The palm oil and kernel processing industry in Ghana includes large, medium-sized, and small-scale processors. The sector provides income for many peri-urban and rural populations and comprises small-scale processors working either in groups or as individuals (Ofosu-Budu & Sarpong, Citation 2013 ).
Ghana produces about 2,000,000 metric tons of oil palm fruits annually, and small-scale processors contribute about 60% of crude palm oil production. The country is not self-sufficient in the fats and oils needed for industrial use and home consumption. A large
Water consumption and wastewater generation from small-scale crude palm oil extraction in Ghana | Water Practice & Technology, IWA Publishing
The quantity of water used by the small-scale mills for processing palm oil is lower than water used for shear butter processing in Ghana and palm oil production in Malaysia. The water consumption rate reported for Malaysia is 2.8–5.8-fold higher than what was recorded in this study.
refinery cost during refining. The quality of crude palm oil affects the efficiency and yield of refining and the quality of the fully processed product (Gibon et al., 2007).Thus inspite of the large quantity of CPO produced by small scale processors in Ghana, the
