Building a palm oil business in Ghana: Entrepreneur shares his journey
In Twifo Praso in Ghana, west of the capital city of Accra, Benjamin Agyare has built his company Mampoma Oil. He started buying the oil palm fruit from farmers in 2016, selling it on to processors. Over time, Agyare expanded this business. It now provides oil palm seedlings to farmers and processes the fruit as well.
Its main economic crops include oil palm, rubber, cotton, and more. (Related article: Palm Oil Processing in Ghana) Ghana imported nearly 250, 000 tons of palm oil from southeast Asia in 2014, worth more than $175 million, the Discoverer reported. Domestic palm oil production was only 135,000 tons last year, while demand exceeded 370,000 tons

The stems of the oil palm have pinnate leaves of between 3 to 5 meters long. The fruit of the oil palm has a red pulp and is about the size of a big plum. It is from this fruit and its seed that palm oil is extracted. Ghana palm oil is grown in an area of approximately 350,000 hectares. There are two main types of oil palm plantations in Ghana;
The area under oil palm in Ghana has expanded but average fruit bunch yields remained low, resulting in large yield gaps. This study assessed the potential for increasing yield with 'Best Management Practices (BMP)' on plantations and smallholder farms in southern Ghana, compared with current standard practices, i.e. reference (REF) yield.

The crude palm oil (CPO) produced by these processors does not meet the quality standard for industrial utilization because of its high content of free fatty acids.
Development and Performance Evaluation of a
A palm oil screw press was designed, fabricated and evaluated for small and medium scale palm fruit processors in order to mechanize the extraction process and increase production output.
The machine design enables cold palm kernel seeds to be processed without pre-treatment, the breaking and cooking operation being performed by the action of the screw shaft within the barrel of
