  • Can palm oil grow in Kenya?
  • Pacific Inter-Link (PIL) Group, which deals in bulk palm oil operations such as sourcing, refining and trading, says land around the lake region in western Kenya has been fragmented to levels that put into question the viability of large-scale farming of oil palm trees.
  • How long does it take a palm tree to grow in Kenya?
  • Mr Saeed says the oil palm tree takes four to five years to mature and up to 10 years to reach full production potential, emphasising that Kenya’s palm oil import substitution is a long-term project. Kenya is estimated to consume about 875,000 metric tonnes of edible oil yearly.
  • How much palm oil did Kenya export in 2021?
  • In 2021, Kenya exported $130M in Palm Oil. The main destinations of Kenya exports on Palm Oil were Uganda ($91.6M), Rwanda ($16.2M), Tanzania ($7.58M), Democratic Republic of the Congo ($4.68M), and South Sudan ($3.41M).
  • How much does Kenya spend on palm oil?
  • According to Kenya’s Cabinet Secretary for Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, Willie Bett, the country spends over Ksh 16 billion (about $1.6 million) annually on imported palm oil. Growing the plant domestically would reduce this cost while opening new income streams for farmers, officials said.
