What is the production of palm oil in Kigoma?

It was shown that the production of palm oil in Kigoma depends on the productivity of oil palms aged over 30 years (>75 % of oil palm) and on the variety dura (>75 % of all oil palms are either bengezas or juwe varieties) (Table 2 ).

Which palm oil hybrids produce the most oil per hectare?

Evaluation of a planting density trial of oil palm hybrids (dura x pisifera) at the Malaysian Palm Oil Board Ulu Papa Research Station showed the highest FFB and oil yields per hectare at densities of 148 palms/ha against plots with 120 POTs/ha or 170 POTs/ha (Rafii et al. 2013 ).

Does lowering plant densities increase oil yield in Kigoma agroforestry system?

Applying the results from Rafii et al. ( 2013) to the intercropping conditions in agroforestry system in Kigoma based on the yield performances of single trees indicates that lowering plant densities contributes to higher oil yields per POT, as confirmed by our empirical findings.

Does small-scale palm oil production in Kigoma retain the character of local adapted farming?

The present study suggests that small-scale production and processing of palm oil in Kigoma (whether intercropped or not) is likely to retain the character of a locally adapted farming system destined to provide enough product for the subsistence of the families and to generate some additional income for the farmers.
