Palm Oil Deforestation: Origins, Environmental Degradation
Palm fruits are the source of the world’s most popular edible oil. Photo: Nanang Sujana/CIFOR. The Issue of Palm Oil Deforestation. While the health benefits of palm oil have been disputed, one thing is certainly clear: palm oil plantations are a major driver of deforestation of some of the world’s most biodiverse ecosystems, severely degrading the environment and affecting the carbon
With the exception of “royal” oil palm plantations, established in the 18th century for palm wine in the Kingdom of Dahomey, all of West Africa’s oil palms grew in wild and semi-wild groves.
Endangered species threatened by unsustainable palm oil
Sumatra has lost more than half of its forests in the last 40 years, primarily due to conversion for palm oil and pulp plantations. We’re Making Progress—and You Can Help WWF is a founding member of the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), which creates standards for sustainable palm oil production and certifies qualified growers
Background Oil palm, Elaeis guineensis, is by far the most important global oil crop, supplying about 40% of all traded vegetable oil. Palm oils are key dietary components consumed daily by over three billion people, mostly in Asia, and also have a wide range of important non-food uses including in cleansing and sanitizing products. Main body Oil palm is a perennial crop with a > 25-year life
The environmental impacts of palm oil in context | Nature Plants
A remote sensing assessment found that oil palm plantations covered at least 19.5 Mha globally in 2019 (Fig. 2), of which an estimated 67.2% were industrial-scale plantings and the remainder were
The usual oil extraction rate for a ripe tenera bunch from a mature tree is between 22—24 percent, or 220—240 kg of oil per tonne of fresh fruit bunches. Dura bunches, unripe bunches, small bunches, and damaged bunches contain less oil. Long stalks soak up the oil and therefore reduce the oil extraction rate.
“When We Lost the Forest, We Lost Everything”: Oil Palm
The oil palm plantations not only destroyed Indigenous people’s forests, lands and the resources in them that they were using for generations but also failed to create any mechanism to explore
Oil palm is the world's most productive oil food crop. It can yield 10 times more oil per hectare than soy, which is the second most inexpensive oil. With a long shelf life and free of trans fats, the oil is squeezed from the fleshy mesocarp which surrounds the palm fruit's central seed or kernel. (Palm kernel oil, also harvested commercially
New map helps track palm-oil supply chains in Borneo
Indonesia and Malaysia are the world’s top two producers of palm oil. Their area of industrial plantations more than quadrupled in extent from 1990 to 2015. Over the same period, regional rates of forest loss rose to among the world’s highest. Forest clearance is driven by a number of factors — establishing plantations is one factor.
Driven by food and industrial demand, the production of global oil palm has more than doubled over the last two decades. Between 1997 and 2018, oil palm plantations expanded from 10 to 21 Million
