  • Does Malawi have agro-ecological suitability for production of oilseeds?
  • Revised. Lilongwe: MoAFS. After considering the agro-ecological suitability of different areas in Malawi for production of oilseeds, two sets of analyses are done using nationally representative household-level data from the fourth Malawi Integrated Household Survey (IHS4) of 2016/17.
  • What is oil & oilseed processing?
  • Oil and Oilseed Processing The latest information available on oil and oilseed processingOil and Oilseed Processing offers a comprehensive text that explores both the conventional and novel “green” extraction methods used to extract oils from seeds.
  • How many households participate in crop agriculture in Malawi?
  • Source: Benson, Mabiso, and Nankhuni (2016). Source: Author’s weighted analysis of 2016-17 Malawi Integrated Household Survey. Note: Observations (IHS4 survey sample households that engage in crop agriculture): 9,293.
  • What are the main aims of oilseed preparation?
  • The main aims of the oilseed preparation include: weakening or breaking the walls of the oil-containing cells, increasing the oil extraction by pressing seeds with a high oil content before solvent extraction and shaping the material to facilitate solvent access to the oil .
  • Why are agro-ecological constraints affecting smallholder farmers in Malawi?
  • Given the general agro-ecological suitability of much of the land in Malawi for production of these crops, the principal spatial constraints to smallholder farmers engaging in their commercial produc-tion are more likely to be linked to market access and the costs producers would face in order to profitably sell their oilseed.
  • What are the wastes from oilseed processing plants?
  • The wastes from oilseed processing plants have been significantly increasing from the past few decades. As the oilseeds are majorly processed by either mechanical expression or solvent extraction, wastes like oilseed meal, seeds, oil sludge, peels, etc., are formed during the extraction process.
