The APOI national team in Ghana are supporting sustainable palm oil by training extension officers from the Ministry of Food and Agriculture in Best Management Practices. These practices will help farmers to obtain a greater yield and therefore reduce the need to convert land for palm oil cultivation.

There are more than 20,000 independent smallholder oil palm farmers supplying fresh fruit bunches (FFB) to medium and large scale oil palm processing mills in Ghana. However, these farmers do not receive any training or extension support from the processing mills and even government extension agents. The average yield of these farmers is around 4 tonnes of FFB per ha per year; about 25% of what it could be. Poor agronomy, limited use of fertiliser and use of low yielding planting materials are the main causes for the low yield levels. With increasing demand for RSPO certified palm oil coupled with the fact that smallholder farmers supply more than 70% of FFB required by oil palm processing mills, smallholders will be left out of the supply chain if they did not attain RSPO certification. These farmers however, do not have the capacity to pay for assistance to obtain certification. To ensure that they are integrated into the oil palm supply chain, funding was sought from the RSPO Smallholder Fund to assist 2000 independent smallholder farmers in Ghana to go through the RSPO certification process.

While Ghana has nearly 90 species that are regularly exploited and traded as timber, its diverse forests contain many other species that can be commercialised. Many of these under-utilised species have similar and sometimes even better performance capabilities than well-known species. Others have a distinctive and unique appearance that makes them ideal for creating attractive timber products. Using a more diverse selection of species is not only a good business decision but also has the potential to improve livelihoods, protect biodiversity and promote sustainable forest management.
