  • Can Ethiopia achieve self-sufficiency in edible oil by 2015?
  • The Ethiopian government is aiming to achieve self-sufficiency in edible oil by 2015. The aim of this research was to develop sustainable business models for millers, increase their competitiveness, and enhance food safety and security in Ethiopia within the changing policy context.
  • Should oil be refined in Ethiopia?
  • According to the Ethiopian quality standard, all edible oil must be refined, although a number of specif- ic oilseeds can be semi-refined (see Appendix 1). Despite this requirement, many millers are selling crude oil particularly to the low income class. The government is planning to ban the sale of crude oil as from next year.
  • Does Ethiopia produce edible oil?
  • Despite Ethiopia being a major producer and exporter of oilseeds, it imports more than three-fourths of its domestic edible oil consumption. The sector has potential due to the increase in demand. Small scale millers currently supply more than 60% of the domestically produced edible oil. One of the main inputs here is noug.
  • How many vegetable and animal oil producers are there in Ethiopia?
  • The available estimates vary. The 2009 CSA industry surveys estimated that there are 259 small-scale and 33 medium and large- scale vegetable and animal oil producers in Ethiopia.
  • Is soy bean a new crop in Africa?
  • ... Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) is one of the most cultivated crops across a wide range of the world even including Ethiopia (Giller and Dashiell, 2007) because of its nutritional, industrial and economic importance. Soy bean is relatively new crop in Africa according to (Mideksa, 2020).
  • Can virgin oil be exported to Ethiopia?
  • As a result, there was a lively discussion on the production of virgin oil versus refined oil. According to international standards, virgin oil can be exported; however, in Ethiopia this is not allowed. Due to the current machinery a healthy produc- tion of edible oil cannot be guaranteed. Within this study we comply with the Ethiopian standards.
