The oil palm is a monoecious plant (having unisexual male and female flowers within the same plant). The female flower bears fruits commonly known as fresh fruit bunches (FFB). Each tree is capable of bearing about 10 to 12 bunches per year and each bunch averages 1000 to 3000 fruits with weight varying between 20 to 30 kilogrammes. Crude palm oil (CPO) is obtained from the mesocarp (the fleshy portion of the fruit wall) and depending on the variety and age of the palm, oil to bunch ratio is within the range of 25 to 28 percent.
