ABSTRACT
Elaeis guineensis is a species of palm generally called African oil palm, and it can reach the height of 20 m or more at maturity. The oil palm is major importance in Africa as a multi-purpose tree where it supplies medicines, foods and many other products to the local population. Elaeis guineensis is rapidly becoming one of the world's most planted plants, being grown especially for its oil-bearing seeds and fruits. Usually 23 kg is the average weight of each bunch but a bunch may up to 82 kg. A bunch of the type contains between 200 and 2000 sessile ovoid drupes, 2 cm broad and 4 cm long with pointed apex. Elaeis guineensis coat colour varies from yellow to orange or nearly black. Varieties of oil …show more content…
