Engineered for high-throughput oilseed preparation plants, the new OLFC combines extended roll service life, reduced structural vibration, and automated operation to boost plant yield, lower energy consumption, and improve long-term uptime.
The initiative focuses on rehabilitating traditional oil palm plantations, establishing modern refining capacity, and enhancing local value addition to meet surging national and regional demand for edible oils.
The project is expected to help Senegal reduce dependence on imported refined oils, improve oil extraction rates through shorter post harvest intervals, and create a more competitive value chain for smallholder growers.
The project aims to accelerate commercialization of key oilseed value chains while improving the livelihoods and resilience of smallholder farmers.
The government has renewed its focus on Ghana’s oil palm industry, with the planned expansion forming part of efforts to increase farm output and strengthen local processing.
