The African Oil Palm Elaeisguineensis is native to West Africa, occurring between Angola and Gambia. Oil palm has been cultivated successfully in Ghana both extensively and on individual farms for many years. Despite this extensive cultivation within Ghana, PALM OIL is imported to meet the 300,000 tonne per year local demand. Production in Africa is limited by a number of factors, including transportation to markets, poor agricultural practices and limited access to land due to the traditional land ownership structure inherent in African culture.
