  • What is Ghana's Oil palm industry?
  • Ghana’s “dual” oil palm sector hosts two value chains, the artisanal and the industrial (export-oriented) one. Most of the country’s oil palm, which is an integral part of the local food system, is produced by smallholders with diverse production and livelihood strategies.
  • Can Ghanaian oil palm industry become globally competitive?
  • The large contribution of local processors to domestic consumption and the historical struggles of the Ghanaian oil palm sector to become globally competitive have militated against this.
  • How many Ghanaian and Indonesian oil palm producers are there?
  • Presented is 2018 survey data for 463 Ghanaian and 243 Indonesian oil palm-producing households, as collected for preceding research projects. The Ghanaian data comprise 106 artisanal producers (Ashanti Region) and 357 industrial producers with contract-farming arrangements (Central and Western Region).
  • How does oil palm expansion affect smallholders in Ghana?
  • According to Carrere (2013), Ghana’s state-led oil palm expansion up until the 1990 s was accompanied by the expropriation of smallholders with adverse impacts on their living conditions and the surrounding environment. Land deals associated with oil palm have led to land losses for smallholders, often facilitated by local chiefs ( Asante, 2021 ).
