  • Why is refining palm oil important?
  • The processing of palm oil, from fruit pulp to refined oil, is detailed, highlighting the importance of refining in maintaining quality and extending application ranges. While palm oil offers health benefits because of its rich fatty acid composition and antioxidant properties, its production poses significant environmental challenges.
  • Where does Morocco import palm oil?
  • At the same year, Palm oil or fractions simply refined was the 918th most imported product in Morocco. Morocco imports Palm oil or fractions simply refined primarily from: Indonesia ($4.81M), Spain ($1.72M), United Arab Emirates ($845k), Netherlands ($630k), and Cote d'Ivoire ($278k).
  • How many vegetable oil refining plants are there in Morocco?
  • There are 2?crushing units and 5?vegetable oil refining plants in Morocco. These plants accounts for crushing capacity of 620,000?tons/year and a refining capacity of 770,000?tons/year.
  • How much palm oil does Morocco import in 2022?
  • Imports In 2022, Morocco imported $8.82M in Palm oil or fractions simply refined, becoming the 127th largest importer of Palm oil or fractions simply refined in the world. At the same year, Palm oil or fractions simply refined was the 918th most imported product in Morocco.
  • How is palm oil processed?
  • Palm oil processing involves several key steps, including harvesting, sterilization, threshing, pressing, and refining. These processes are crucial for maintaining the quality and extending the application range of palm oil. The refining process removes unwanted compounds while preserving beneficial components such as tocopherols.
  • How will Morocco meet its oil needs by 2030?
  • As regards oilseeds sector, this strategy relies on a significant increase of area from 32,500?ha in 2019 to 70,000?ha, by 2030. It also envisages increasing the yield from 12 to 18?quintals per hectare and oil production from 38,000 to 126,000?tons. As a result, Morocco aims to meet 10% of its vegetable oil needs by 2030 instead of the current 2%.
