How much is a bag of sunflower worth in Zambia?
A bag of sunflower, which weighs 25 kilograms, is sold in Zambia for 150 Zambia Kwacha (about $6.60 US). Most farmers prefer to sell their sunflower as seeds and grain rather than process it because they receive sales income immediately. However, by adding value to her sunflower harvest, Mrs. Kamuwikeni is making twice the money she used to make.
How is sunflower oil extracted?
Sunflower oil is extracted using a grinding machine called an expeller. The oil is then not clean enough to be sold directly after this process, according to Mrs. Kamuwikeni. She pays a processing fee to use other people¡¯s expellers.
Is sunflower a profitable crop?
Sunflower is a profitable crop for farmers as they can sell the by-product of sunflower cake. Mrs. Kamuwikeni plans to increase her income from sunflower by buying an oil expeller and connecting her farm to electricity to start processing oil on her own.
