Oil palm became popular in Uganda through the oil palm production project that started in 2002 through a tripartite Public Private Partnership (PPP) with Oil Palm Uganda Limited (OPUL), Kalangala Oil Palm Grower’s Trust (KOPGT), and the Government of Uganda through the Vegetable Oil Development Project (VODP) with funding from IFAD.
FFB are first transferred to the palm oil mills for sterilisation by applying high-pressure steam, whereupon the palm fruits are enzyme-deactivated and separated from the palm bunches. After steaming, the palm fruitlets are crushed in a pressing machine to obtain crude palm oil (CPO) and palm kernel.

However, the past methods of palm oil refining might not have been perfect. Thanks to technological advancements, modern refining techniques present a fresh avenue for the palm oil industry to prosper. From Crude Palm Oil to Refined Palm Oil. There are roughly two methods for refining palm oil, each with their own pros and cons.
In pursuit of this, Oil Palm Uganda Limited signed an agreement with the Uganda Government to undertake an integrated palm oil project in Kalangala District of Uganda in 2002. Kalangala Oil Palm project was and still is part of the Ugandan Government Vegetable Oil Development Project (VODP) initiative geared towards increasing Vegetable oil.

Oil palm, a lucrative vegetable oil crop in the world, showed promising adaptability to some agroecologies in Uganda from studies carried out in the 1970s resulting in first commercial establishment in 2005 in Bugala Island, Kalangala district. Further, adaptability studies continue to reveal suitable areas for commercial oil palm production in the country. The infant industry faces an array.

- What is oil palm research in Uganda?
- Oil palm research in Uganda is spearheaded by the National Crop Resources Research Institute, NaCRRI. It is funded by the government of Uganda and International Fund for Agricultural Development, IFAD through the National Oil Palm Project, NOPP under the Ministry of Agriculture Animal Industry and Fisheries, MAAIF.
- Is oil palm a commercial crop in Uganda?
- Research is paramount in regard to identifying and addressing challenges associated with the commercial production of oil palm in Uganda. (Passage originally stated: Oil palm is a novel commercial crop in Uganda and as such, research is paramount in regard to identifying and addressing challenges associated with its production in the country.)
- How much money did oil palm farmers make in Uganda?
- Of this, US$70.38 million was from Oil Palm Uganda Limited (OPUL), US$52 million was a loan from IFAD, a GoU contribution of US$14.14 million, US$5.48 million from Kalangala Oil Palm Growers Trust (KOPGT), farmers’ contribution estimated at US$3.89 million, and US$0.285 million from SNV (the Netherlands Development Organization).
- Where does Uganda get its oil from?
- In Uganda, half of the oil-seed production meets the demand, while the other half is mainly from crude palm oil imports. Both the locally produced and imported crude palm oil are refined into vegetable oil or used in the manufacture of soaps and detergents.
- Should Uganda develop palm oil for import substitution?
- As such, there is growing interest by the Government of Uganda in developing palm oil for import substitution, and the fact that production from even poor yielding oil palm substantially exceeds that from a similar area of annual oilseed crops.
- Is oil palm production suitable in Kalangala?
- Oil palm production in Kalangala exceeds 11,000 hectares and has been expanded to the districts of Buvuma and Mayuge. According to adaptability studies, oil palm production is suitable in Masaka, Kibaale, and Kagadi as well.
