<p class="A04-abstrak2"><span>The area of oil palm plantations is now reaching 14.7 million hectares, and it is an opportunity for Indonesia to develop an integrated beef cattle industry with the oil-palm integrated system. However, the development of this system is not yet massive. The problem among others is the plantation area owned by the smallholder farmers which is not sufficient for grazing area. To formulate concentrate feeds for the cattle, farmers need supports from palm oil processing companies for its raw materials. This paper is prepared as a literature review aimed at analyzing the prospects and constraints, legal aspects, and stakeholders' role in developing cattle-oil palm integration. This paper concludes that there is ample opportunity to develop an oil palm-cattle integration system. Furthermore, oil palm industry development requires legal aspects, the number of farmers and companies, and the organizations. A policy is needed to develop an oil palm-cattle integration system, coordinated by the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs. The needed policies among others organizing smallholders involved in the integration system for easier access to technologies, extension, livestock health services, and access to feed raw materials such as palm kernel cake and sludge. Sustainability of oil palm-cattle integration efforts in the regions is needed to extend the status of current regulations regarding the integration system from Governor and Regency Regulations into Regional Regulations.</span></p>

The objective of this research was to highlight the economic importance of the optimal use of products and byproducts of oil palm. In Colombia, productive crops per hectare can generate, over one year, an average of 3.14 tons of oil, and up to 21.68 t of solid and liquid waste when the plant is on a productive stage. These data allowed the researcher to estimate that more than nine million of t of solid and liquid waste was produced from the 450 131 ha present in 2014, in Colombia; the produced biomass was used to generate energy and steam, releasing carbon dioxide back again into the environment. These residues have great potential in many industries, some to be developed, therefore, it is of special importance to try to maximize the use of waste produced by oil palm production, to generate economic and environmental benefits. An example of this is the palm kernel cake, with a nutritional potential in animal feed, fiber in the biocompound industry, biomass and stipe in the timber industry, glycerol, biodiesel, and liquid effluents in the chemical and biotechnological industry. The use of these raw materials may help to establish a positive balance in the cultivation of this species of oil palm in the country.

The oil palm plantation can be found throughout West Africa and palm oil has contributed significantly towards the Nigerian exports. However, the palm oil industry in Nigeria was declining to 36.4% in 1969 and 13.2% in 1974 in spite of being the largest global exporting country at the beginning of 20th Century. Since then, domestic consumption has increased, slow growth in palm oil production and low output was delivered. The equipment of production is considered obsolete, the plantations are aging, the technology access is very little, and financing is insufficient. This indicated a threat and inefficiency of Nigerian palm oil industries to cater for the needs of people regardless of the increase in oil demand locally as the  palm kernel oil is becoming important food and raw materials. Due to this problem, Nigeria remained to receive palm oil from Malaysia even though the seedlings was originated from Nigeria. Other large importers include from Benin, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Togo. This issue has caused Palm oil production in Nigeria to be more expensive and not competitive if compared to other countries like Malaysia and Indonesia. Hence, the objective of this paper explores the challenges facing palm oil industry in Nigeria using qualitative data through document and thematic analysis. The semi-structured interview was analysed by utilizing Atlas ti 8 software. The findings of the paper shows that there are challenges facing palm oil industry in Nigeria such as lack of good planting materials, poor funding, improper milling and lack of technology. From this, it is confirmed that there are numerous challenges facing palm oil industry in Nigeria which requires aids from the government from allocation of huge amount of its budget to agriculture and establish better policies for the palm oil industry that will attract more public and private investment.

AbstractPalm kernel shell (PKS) is one of the greatly abundant residues in the palm oil industry. It possesses physiochemical characteristics that build in it a potential to serve the production of valuable products, namely, bio-fuels such as char, bio-oil, and bio-gas. This paper presents the properties of PKS as a biomass feed for the production of char. Characterizations of PKS in terms of proximate and ultimate analyses, chemical composition, and higher heating value (HHV in terms of MJ/kg) are presented and consequently compared to different oil palm biomass such as empty fruit bunch (EFB), fiber, fronds, and trunks. To illustrate and signify stability, the aforementioned characteristics are discussed for PKS-char, along with further comparison with EFB-char and coal. In addition, recent advances in char production methods from PKS are presented and compared. Simultaneously, future prospects and major challenges towards the utilization of PKS for the production of char are also addressed.

Energy consumption and associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions will increase significantly in the developing world. Scaling up bioenergy use and reducing GHG emissions is vital to achieving the Nationally Determined Contributions and advance the greener economy. This study explored the life cycle inventories of Nigeria’s palm oil processors towards supporting technology advancement and renewable energy transition in the African oil palm industry. We compiled a gate-to-gate life cycle inventory of large-scale, semi-mechanized, and smallholder processors of oil palm fresh fruit bunch in Nigeria. The inventory includes materials and energy inputs to the system and outputs and emissions to the environment. The inputs are diesel, water, electricity, empty fruit bunch, palm kernel shell and mesocarp fibre for a functional unit of 1 tonne of fresh fruit bunch while the outputs include crude palm oil, palm kernel, and all emissions to air and soil. Carbon dioxide (CO2) and dinitrogen oxide (N2O) emissions were 47% and 73% more in the smallholder mills than in the large-scale mills, respectively. The semi-mechanized mills produced 73% more N2O than the large-scale mills. In contrast, large-scale mills emit 71% more methane (CH4) than smallholder and semi-mechanized mills. The study reveals critical hot spots of GHG emissions in Nigeria’s oil palm industry, including CO2, N2O, and CH4 from the smallholder, semi-mechanized, and large-scale processors, respectively. These findings will contribute to supporting policymaking, technology advancement, and promoting the use of bioenergy within and outside the industry as an essential strategy for mitigating climate change.

Palm oil was first introduced in Indonesia by the Dutch government in 1848, at that time there were 4 oil palm seedlings planted at Bogor Botanical Garden (Botanical Garden) in Bogor, two from Bourbon (Mauritius) and two from the Hortus Botanicus, Amsterdam ( Netherlands). Currently the development of oil palm cultivation is increasing with an area of 2017 covering 11.5 million hectares and the production of palm oil (CPO) has reached ± 30 million tons in 2018. The main objective of this research is to find out the influence of the increase of capacity achievement, availability of raw materials and the achievement of oil and palm kernel oil to the performance of oil palm factory, especially the cost of processing so that it can give added value to the company. Based on the result of the research, it is known that the capacity of X1 is negative but not significant. This is in accordance with the hypothesis, the availability of raw material (X2) is negative but not significant and the yield of rendement (X3) is negative but not significant this is in accordance with the hypothesis and capacity though, the availability of raw materials and yields of yields together have a significant effect on the cost of processing. On the basis of this, then the management should increase attention to the capacity of the process, the availability of raw materials and the achievement of rendemen to minimize the basic price.

Oil palm is expected to continue its dominance of global oil production, trade, and consumption. Nigeria will continue to play a dominate role in oil palm industry particularly on production and consumption. One of the biggest challenges to agricultural productivities is the need to reduce the environmental impacts and improves circularity in the operations. This study investigated the environmental impacts of different palm oil processors in Nigeria using life cycle assessment approach. The study covers the reception and processing of fresh fruit bunch (FFB) to palm oil. The inputs include generated empty fruit bunch, mesocarp fibre, palm kernel shell, palm oil mill effluent, diesel, and water and all outputs to the environment for a functional unit of 1 tonne of FFB. The large-scale processor performs worse than the semi-mechanised and smallholder processors in terms of climate change with 468 kg CO2-eq per tonne of FFB and better in the other impact categories. In large-scale mill, the contribution to climate change was reduced by 75% when the raw POME was used in composting EFB. Similarly, the contribution to climate change was decreased by 44% when biogas from POME substituted diesel in the semi-mechanised and smallholder mills. Concerted efforts by regulators are needed to ensure that stakeholders take steps towards improving management practices in the industry. Particularly on the generation and reuse of biomass and POME. This study will be very useful particularly on the contributions to climate change by Nigeria’s oil palm industry and other parts of sub-Saharan Africa.

Sustainability certification such as Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) certification outlines the agricultural practices that need to be followed by all the stakeholders within the supply chain so that the loss of environmental resources can be reversed, and social effects can be reduced. Despite its crucial role, the supply chains, particularly the independent smallholder farmers, do not seem to take sufficient efforts to obtain this certification. The reason for this lack of efforts may be due to communication barriers, leading to lack of awareness in the existence of such certification. This paper is a systematic literature review of the available studies on sustainability certification and issues in obtaining the certification. The studies selected were published between 2015 and 2020. The review identified three-layered challenges that led to communication barriers to obtaining the sustainability certification. The layers included engagement, pre-certification, and post-certification. The identification of these layers provides insight into the communication barriers that hinder the independent smallholder farmers from accessing information and obtaining the certification. It is hoped that the issues and challenges identified could help the researchers to propose a framework that can reduce and resolve the communication barriers in obtaining the sustainability certification.

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq) is a part of the family of Arecaceae, which originated from West Africa. Oil palm can be grown in the tropics of Asia, Africa, and Central and South America. Palm oil produces two types of oil: Crude Palm Oil (CPO) and Palm Kernel Oil (PKO). Indonesia’s CPO production reaches 49 million tonnes in 2020. This production produces around 35-40% of waste. Fresh Fruit Bunch (FFB) is extracted into Crude Palm Oil (CPO) and Palm Kernel Oil (PKO), which produce waste such as Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME), Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB), Mesocarp Fiber (MF), Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) and Palm Kernel Meal (PKM). Palm oil production increases every year, which causes the waste from the industry to increase too. Palm oil waste still has chemical content that is good enough to be utilized. The study was conducted online at Google Scholar and PubMed by reviewing literature from domestic and international journals and research reports. The results showed that each waste contains different content, including carbohydrates, protein, fat, lignin, cellulose, mannose, and others. This waste has also been used in various fields. This waste has also been used for livestock, fuel, and raw materials.
