What kind of oil is used in Ethiopia?

All other oilseed crops (soybeans, linseed, groundnuts, cottonseed etc.) grown in Ethiopia are almost entirely used domestically. Edible oil for consumption in Ethiopia is mainly imported from different countries. In calendar year (CY) 15, Ethiopia imported 479,000 metric tons of cooking oil, valued at nearly $474 million dollars.

Is edible oil refining a new sector in Ethiopia?

Recommendations Although edible oil refining is not a new sector in Ethiopia, there are currently very few edible oil factories with the knowledge, technical and equipment capacity, human resources, and supply chain required to expect fortification of edible oils to flourish.

Why is soybean a bottleneck in Ethiopia?

In northeastern Ethiopia, soybean [Glycine max (L) Merril] is one of the most important legume crops. However, one of the manufacturing bottlenecks is the lack of high-quality seeds. Quality seed production necessitates the development of seeds from improved types under optimal growth conditions and storage for the shortest time possible.

Where are edible oil processing factories located in Ethiopia?

In addition, several large edible oil processing factories are under construction or in a pilot phase (located in Bahir Dar, Debre Markos, Burie, Wolkitie, Sebeta, and Dire Dawa). These large-scale factories have a designed production capacity greater than the annual edible oil demand within Ethiopia.
