Zambia: Farmer boosts income by processing oil from sunflower
Mrs Kamuwikeni can sell a 25-kg bag of sunflower for 150 Zambia Kwacha ($6.60 US). Or she can process that bag into 10 litres of cooking oil and sell it for 430 Kwacha ($19 US). It’s seven o’clock in the morning and Naomi Kamuwikeni is quickly walking to the oil expeller at Gondar market. She is carrying sunflowers to process into oil.
The sunflower seed is comprised from the husk on the outside and the kernel on the inside, whereas depending on the oil content it is categorised in two varieties, one with low oil content
Expanding and Expelling - AOCS
Expanding and Expelling. Home Edible Oil Processing. Although mechanically the machines used to perform the expanding and the expelling functions share a number of common features, they serve completely different purposes. The expander is a unit assigned to seed or product preparation, whereas the expeller is the machine for mechanical oil
untreated and raw sunflower seed. Singh and Bargale (2000) designed and developed a modified oil expeller based on a novel principle of single feed, double stage compression to improve the efficiency of oil recovery. Bamgboye and Adejumo (2008) also developed and modified a screw press for sunflower oil expeller. Modh and Mevada (2011)
Sunflower Oil: Is It Healthy? Uses, Cautions & Best Types - mindbodygreen
Functional Nutrition Training. All varieties of sunflower oil contain 1 around 14 grams of total fat per tablespoon, minimal saturated fat, and a good amount of vitamin E (about 40% of the daily value). Beyond that, however, things can look pretty different depending on the type of sunflower oil.
Production Process for Sunflower Seed Oil. Expeller pressed sunflower oil and solvent extraction methods are two common production processing for sunflower oil. Using the pressing method typically results in an oil residue rate of around 7%, whereas solvent extraction can reduce the oil residue rate to about 1%.
Development of a Sunflower Oil Expeller | Semantic Scholar
An expelling machine was developed for extracting oil from decorticated sunflower seeds. The expelling unit consists of an auger with decreasing pitches and the heating of seeds is achieved by generated steam, which heats the surrounding of seeds passage. The machine was tested at auger speeds of 30, 40, 50rpm respectively and three throughputs. Results showed that performance efficiencies
The oil left over after double pressing varies from 5% to 9% depending on the oil seed and extent of pressing. Special Preparatory Required Equipments: Any oil-bearing seeds can be processed in an oil mill (mechanical extraction system), special preparatory equipment are recommended prior to expelling.

- Why is sunflower oil a good crop?
- The oil from sunflower offers more benefits compared to selling sunflower seed. Sunflower is a good crop because farmers also sell the by-product of sunflower cake.¡± Mrs. Kamuwikeni plans to buy an oil expeller and connect her farm to electricity so that she can start processing oil on her own.
- How is sunflower oil processed?
- To process sunflower into cooking oil, farmers use a grinding machine called an expeller. Because Mrs. Kamuwikeni does not have an expeller, she uses other people¡¯s expellers and pays a processing fee. She says, ¡°After extracting the oil using the expeller, the oil is not clean enough to be sold directly to the community.¡±
- How much is a bag of sunflower worth in Zambia?
- Most farmers prefer to sell their sunflower as seeds and grain rather than process it because they receive sales income immediately.
