Solving the issue of Palm oil sustainability. Introduction. The essay attempts to explore the major problem areas in the context of the Palm oil Industry and the issues related to the concept that how sustainable is that? The circumscribing problem is a question in itself which seeks answers to the ever going debate. Also, this essay would Palm oil production is said to have been responsible for about 8% of the world’s deforestation between 1990 and 2008. The crop has also contributed towards pollution and climate change as land, including carbon-rich peatlands, have been converted to plantations. Originating from West-Africa, palm oil is an edible vegetable oil produced from the mesocarp of the fruit of oil palms. It is the world’s highest yielding oil crop, with output 5-10 times higher per hectare than other leading vegetable oil crops. It offers numerous nutritional benefits since it is cholesterol-free, easy to digest and rich in carotenoids, as well as Vitamin A. It also has a longer shelf-life and is cheaper than other vegetable oils available in the market. Palm oil and palm kernel processing involve many different procedures. Therefore, the ability to make machinery that can handle the many unit operations involved is indicative of a generalised ability to produce processing machines for other crops. Many machines developed for the palm industry can undertake the same functions for other crop applications with minor modifications. For instance, sterilizers are capable of cooking vegetables, cereals and grains as well as roots and tubers. The THE OIL PALM AND ITS SUSTAINABILITY INTRODUCTION The oil palm in Malaysia is over a century old. Introduced as an ornamental in 1871, the oil palm was commercially exploited as an oil crop only from 1911 when the first oil palm estate was established. Much has been written about the crop, its products and commercial trade (Yusof Basiron et al., 2000). The The Palm Oil Advantage in Biofuel The high prices of petroleum have stimulated the rapid development of the biofuel industry in the European Union, United States and to some extent in Malaysia. Biofuel offers strategic advantages for different sectors and stakeholders. BMD Daily Crude Palm Oil / Palm Kernel Oil Futures The oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) originated from West Africa, where evidence of its use as a staple food crop dates as far back as 5,000 years. There is even evidence in Egyptian tombs of people being buried with casks of palm oil, reflecting the high societal value attributed to the product. Needless to say, with origins in West Africa and evidence of consumption in Egypt, palm oil can be considered one of the earliest traded commodities.
