  • Which region produces the most palm oil?
  • Kigoma, Mbeya and Pwani are the main oil palm producing regions – with Kigoma producing about 61.4%, Mbeya 35.7% and Pwani 0.9% as per 2017/18 agricultural season data1. In Kigoma there are over 30,000 smallholder subsistence palm oil farmers2. Meanwhile, the country imports over 500,000 MT of palm oil per annum.
  • Can oil palm fill the edible oil gap?
  • Experts4 report that oil palm, coconut and avocado as the leading edible oil producing value chains per unit area, worldwide. Hence, an investment opportunity avails itself in tapping oil palm, coconut and avocado’s potential in filling the edible oils’ gap. Oilseeds are produced in almost all regions.
  • What is oil palm used for?
  • More recently, additional uses for this crop have developed, such as local soap production using palm oil. Oil palm production is carried out primarily by smallholder farmers living in Kigoma Region (Kigoma Rural District), as well as in Mbeya Region (mostly Kyela District) and some parts of Tanga and Pwani regions.
  • What is the palm oil value chain?
  • The palm oil value chain - Diagnostics, investment models and action plan for development and innovation (2019) Tanzania`s edible oil sub-sector stands at Tshs 676.2 billion (US$294 million) with players like Bidco Oil and Soap Ltd, Murzah Oil Mills and Alaska Tanzania3.
  • What are the main sources of edible oil?
  • The major sources of edible oil include sunflower, oil palm, groundnuts, sesame, soya beans and cotton. Experts4 report that oil palm, coconut and avocado as the leading edible oil producing value chains per unit area, worldwide.
  • Does Tanzania need to import oil palm seeds from abroad?
  • Oil palm experts advise that, Tanzania doesn’t need to import seeds from abroad as we have the best parent stock. In total, Tanzania requires some 20,377,500 Tenera plants in order to produce the required 570,000 MT of edible oil through palm oil value chain. This is a huge number of oil palm trees needed in the country.
