Informations supplémentaires

Rapid growing palm oil trees yielding fruit within first year and twice a year within 3 years. Palm oil is a form of edible vegetable oil obtained from the fruit of the Oil palm tree. It is the second-most widely produced edible oil, after soybean oil. The fruit is the source of both palm oil and palm kernel oil. Each fruit contains a single seed (the palm kernel) surrounded by a soft oily pulp. Oil is extracted from both the pulp of the fruit (palm oil, an edible oil) and the kernel (palm kernel oil, used mainly for soap manufacture). Much research is now being undertaken for palm oil to be used in Biofuel additives, which is a positive aspect. Sadly a lot of rainforest is being cut down to provide space or areas for more palm oil plantations.
