Palm Kernel Cake Pellets available at GOPDC

With the installation of a palm kernel cake pellet plant at its Kwae Estate, GOPDC becomes the first company in West Africa to produce palm kernel cake pellets (PKCP).

This is a ready product and a reasonably good economic feed for livestock, both for fattening and supplementary feeding. The pellets have a very high protein content needed for healthy growth of livestock.

The plant, of European origin, currently produces pellets of average size of 6 mm diameter. The plant has a capacity of 2000 kg/hr with bagging capacity of 40 bags of 50 kg/hr.
