Here's Why You Need Palm Oil - Palmco Agro Food

 

1. Palm oil is made from the fruits of oil palm trees, grown in the tropics.

Palm oil is produced from the fruits of oil palm trees. Due to the specific conditions necessary for growing oil palm trees—plenty of sunshine, high temperature and rainfall, it can only be cultivated in tropical regions. The oil is extracted from the loose fruits of the fresh fruit bunches (FFBs). While the flesh of the fruit is used to produce palm oil, the inner seed is refined into palm kernel oil.

2. It is a resource-efficient, healthy and versatile ingredient.

Palm oil is the most resource-efficient vegetable oil. This is because oil palm trees require considerably less land to produce the same yield as compared to other oils. For example, every hectare of land that produces 0.7 tonnes of sunflower oil will be able to produce 3.8 tonnes of palm oil.

3. Palm oil can be produced responsibly, using sustainable farming methods.

Despite its pros, the production of palm oil is infamous for being unsustainable. To clear land for oil palm plantations, forests need to be cut down. This has impacted some local communities and wildlife. And unfortunately, a lot of these forests are often cleared by using unsustainable methods like burning, which increase air pollution and soil erosion.

However, palm oil can be produced in an environmentally friendly manner. Farming can be sustainable if proper regulations and methods are followed for the sustainable cultivation of oil palm trees.
