REMOVES THE EXHAUSTING WORK IN PALM OIL PROCESSING FOR THE SMALL FARM HOLDER
Palm oil processing for the small holder is a daunting task. Usually, the traditional practice involves using the feet to crush the sterilized fruits in an effort to rupture the oil bearing cells to maximise the oil recovery chances. The process is not only tedious but also compromises the hygiene. The drudgery has caused many farmers not to realise the full benefits of their investment in oil palm plantation.
Youth groups wishing to do business in the provision of processing services in the palm oil value chain will find this piece of technology very appropriate and affordable.
