Life cycle GHG emissions from Malaysian oil palm bioenergy
Oil palm produces two types of oil, crude palm oil (CPO) and crude palm kernel oil (CPKO). The latter constitutes 10% of the total palm oil produced. Accounting for the two types of palm oil, average yield is about 4 t/ha, which is the highest yield among the major edible oils ( Steenblik, 2006 ).
