In addition, NOPP will build strong linkages between the smallholder oil palm growers and the primary processors, based on the innovative public-private-producer partnership (4P)
of Uganda in developing palm oil for import substitution, and the fact that production from even poor yielding oil palm substantially exceeds that from a similar area of annual oilseed crops. The best

Energy consumption pattern in palm kernel oil processing operations
Power plant construction originating from palm oil waste created its own energy for the sustainability of the palm oil mill. The potential energy magnitude generated by waste is actually good, and had
With the collaboration of that partner, oil palm production has been introduced to Uganda and a modern, environmentally-friendly palm oil built within the country. The project encouraged
- How is oil palm investment implemented in Uganda?
- Accordingly, the introduction and implementation of oil palm investments (from production to value addition) in Uganda is through a Public Private Partnership (PPP), spearheaded by the Vegetable Oil Development Project (VODP) housed at the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries (MAAIF).
- What is oil palm research in Uganda?
- Oil palm research in Uganda is spearheaded by the National Crop Resources Research Institute, NaCRRI. It is funded by the government of Uganda and International Fund for Agricultural Development, IFAD through the National Oil Palm Project, NOPP under the Ministry of Agriculture Animal Industry and Fisheries, MAAIF.
- Is the oil palm industry in mid-western Uganda (Bundibugyo) a viable sub-region?
- At the sub-national level, the report presents a specific case of the oil palm industry in Mid-Western Uganda (Bundibugyo), to shed light on the potential of the industry in the sub-region. The key highlights of the report are; Production is essentially clustered in one hub.
- Is oil palm adaptable to agroecology in Uganda?
- From studies carried out in the 1970s, oil palm showed promising adaptability to some agroecologies in Uganda resulting in the first commercial establishment in 2005 on Bugala Island, Kalangala district.
- Where is oil palm grown in Uganda?
- The best area for cultivation of oil palm in Uganda was found to be the Lake Victoria islands, notably the Ssese Islands (IFAD, 1997). Since 1998, the Government of Uganda has invested in domestic production and processing of vegetable oils to meet the increasing national demand.
- How much palm oil can a refinery produce in Uganda?
- Uganda can only produce 20% of the crude palm oil required by refineries – using the case of OPUL and BIDCO Uganda Ltd2. This implies that an investment in a refinery must have clear strategies for sourcing raw materials (FFBs or crude palm oil) for processing or refining.
