“PALMKERNEL OIL.—Steadiness has ruled in this market, and stocks continued to be light⟳, and the better tone in oils has been reflected. […] A local man, recently returned from Europe, expressed the view⟳ that Great Britain was to succeed⟳ to most of the palmkernel crushing industry formerly controlled by crushers in Hamburg, Germany.”

“The regulations specify⟳ the raw materials that may be used, namely lard, premier jus, oleomargarine, stearine oil, fish⟳ oil, and vegetable oils obtained from palmkernels, coconuts, groundnuts, sesameseed, sunflowerseed and cottonseed.”

“Taking palmkernels as an example, with an oil content of 52% on a dry basis, this would amount to 7.25% moisture on the whole seed (Cornelius, 1966). […] Palmkernels are separated from the press-cake from palm oil production.”
