Business / Re: Need Advise On How To Start Palm Oil Processing Business by selwiz: 7:18pm On Jul 03, 2013
activities: i want to start a palm oil processing business in my village but don't know much about it, Advise needed pls.
i have been searching for similar info but nobody is saying anything so i went searching the internet and got something small which is a start:
Start a palm oil milling and processing plant
Traditional processing is one of the leading reasons for low palm oil production in Africa. Due to the crude methods of squeezing out palm oil from the pulp of the palm fruit, a lot of oil still remains in the pulp and is lost through this ineffective and wasteful process.

Modern mills process harvested palm fruits into final grade palm oil with little or no waste and minimal use of human power. Using machines, the process typically involves sterilizing and threshing the bunches to free the palm fruit, mashing the fruit and pressing out the crude palm oil. The crude oil is further treated to purify and dry it for storage and sale in both local and international markets.

An investment in a milling plant can be a great source of income if it is located close enough to oil palm sources. The two major ways to make money from this venture are:

Charge a service fee to mill/process harvested palm fruits for customers. You could charge a flat fee on a per kilogram or per hour basis. The value you offer to customers is a quick, easy and labour-free way to get their palm fruits milled and processed to palm oil.

Another popular method of making money from palm oil mills is to buy off harvested palm fruits directly from small-scale farmers, produce the palm oil and then sell directly to both local and international markets. This strategy has a greater potential for huge profits because of the mill’s capacity to buy palm fruits at low prices and sell the processed palm oil at a much higher price.

To succeed with this strategy, there are a couple of things you will need to watch out for. Operating a mill is likely to require a lot of power. With high fuel prices and poor electricity in many parts of Africa, this is likely to be the single most influential and challenging factor in determining the profitability of this venture. Another important factor is the quality of palm fruits you buy from farmers. You should ensure that they are of the high yield variety (preferably Tenera). A failure in this area may lead to low palm oil production volumes and poor profits.

Other factors to consider before starting an oil mill are skilled labour to operate and maintain the machinery, quality control in processing the palm oil and easy access to markets.


Palm oil processing machinery can be sourced locally or imported. Alibaba.com is a good place to start your search.

Romance / Re: Is Honeymoon Compulsory And What It's Usefulness? by selwiz: 12:09pm On Jun 19, 2013
I disagree with you,honey moon is mot for learning couples. honey moon is a time a couple spend alone together doing things especially intimate things but honey moon is not restricted to new couples, at regular intervals older couples should make out time to be alone and enjoy themselves. you can keep ur kids with any of your parents and take a break from the wahala of work and the kids. For me sex has never gotten boring with my partner because we find out ways to make it fun,so any opportunity to be alone (honey moon)is welcomed,its all about your mindset. Honeymoon is very important but should be done sensible,it will be foolish if a struggling couple use all the financial gifts from the wedding to go travel for honeymoon, just understand the concept behind honeymoon and you will knw wat to do, i never travelled for a special honeymoon after our wedding,we spent a month at home together doing all sorts of things with no disturbance and we have had opportunities to travel on several occasions for friends weddings and so on, we use such moments to be alone in the hotel room,eat and Bleep,its always refreshing and it is called HONEY MOON.
Romance / Re: Is It Wrong For A Lady To Protect Herself In A Union by selwiz: 8:28pm On Jun 18, 2013
It is very wrong to say men will always be dogs, not all men cheat on their wives. now back to the main point,if a woman in an intimate relationship either marriage or just dating says she wants her partner to use protection then it means she suspects he is cheating,in that case it is not wrong to protect herself but she should be careful that she is just not imagining things
