  • What was the palm kernel extraction rate of IOI Group in 2023?
  • In 2023, palm kernel extraction rate of IOI Group was at 4.14 percent. About 40 percent of the oil palm plantations owned by the IOI Corporation Berhad in the same year were at their prime age . IOI's biggest income was generated from its palm oil plantations, and it is one of the world's largest palm oil companies.
  • What percentage of palm oil is extracted from a bunch?
  • FAO considers palm oil (coming from the pulp) and palm kernels as primary products. The oil extraction rate from a bunch varies from 17 to 27% for palm oil, and from 4 to 10% for palm kernels. (Unofficial definition) Metric: Yield Description: Harvested production per unit of harvested area for crop products.
  • What is oil extraction rate & kernel extraction rate?
  • Oil extraction rate (OER) and kernel extraction rate (KER) are two indicators of efficiency which can indirectly influence the profitability of any plantation enterprise. Being an integrated oil palm venture, this is of prime importance, because the final arbiter of commercial success is the oil yield per ha and not just FFB yield per ha alone.
  • Does palm oil ripeness affect oil extraction rate?
  • The FFB received at palm oil mills is graded for ripeness and other criteria that may affect the milling process and oil extraction rate (OER). However, there is no estimate of the oil or kernel content of the FFB received nor of fiber levels or other components such as ash that may reduce the extraction rates in the mill.
  • How is the efficiency of palm oil mills evaluated?
  • Similarly, the efficiency of mills in terms of their ability to extract starch or sugar can be evaluated if the quality of the product entering the mills is known. In oil palm, the FFB received at palm oil mills is graded for ripeness and other criteria that may affect the milling process and oil extraction rate (OER).
  • How is palm oil produced?
  • In general, the industry has paid little attention to palm kernel, and has focused on intensification of production of palm oil. Intensified production of palm oil depends on: increasing the FFB yield; increasing the oil content of the FFB; and extracting more of the oil from the FFB.
