Oil palm is a tropical plant species, scientifically known as Elaeis guineensis, native to west and southwest Africa. It is commonly grown in tropical regions for its oil-rich fruits. Their fruits are the source of palm oil, which is used in a wide variety of products like food, cleaning agents, and biofuel. The oil palm has a single stem and grows up to 20 meters tall with leafy fronds forming a spreading canopy. It also bears clusters of fruit all year round, with each fruit having a single seed or kernel. Both the fruit and kernel provide palm oil.
