Oilseeds & Edible oil

Demand continues to outpace supply, pushing import costs higher and raising pressure on reforms.

Projects in Lengue and Eséka aim to lift farmer incomes and increase palm oil output.

The new facility, located in Ilorin, is designed to process large volumes of soybeans into edible oil and high-protein feed, supporting both Nigeria’s food security agenda and its growing livestock sector.

The country keeps total oilseed area steady while shifting focus to stronger export crops.

The initiative, which aligns with the Renewed Hope Agenda, will focus on expanding oil palm cultivation, modernizing processing facilities, and strengthening market linkages for smallholder farmers. It will also encourage private sector investment to enhance competitiveness and drive exports.
