Topics to be Considered for Establishing Competitive Plantations of Oil Palm in Colombia
Entrepreneurs interested in investing on the Colombian oil palm sector must be aware of the fact that this sector is not going to be as protected as it used to be in the past. Furthermore, the area currently planted with oil palm in Colombia is enough for covering the internal demand (both traditional consume and biofuels), so every new oil palm project must be competitive abroad. This is possible only if research and innovation results are incorporated to those projects in order to lower the production costs. This paper highlights the importance of using proper criteria before starting an oil palm project. Topics such as soils selection, irrigation, genetic material and transportation costs, among others, are considered from an economical point of view

Topics such as soils selection, irrigation, genetic material and transportation costs, among others, are considered from an economical point of view Los empresarios Colombianos interesados en invertir en el sector de la palma de aceite deben conocer que éste ya no se encuentra tan protegido como en el pasado. Más aún el área sembrada con palma de aceite en Colombia es suficiente para cubrir la demanda interna (tanto para consumo tradicional como para biocombustibles); luego, cada proyecto nuevo de palma de aceite debe ser competitivo en el exterior. Esto es posible solo si los resultados de la innovación y el desarrollo son incorporados a esos proyectos con el fin de bajar el costo de producción. El artículo destaca la importancia de utilizar criterios apropiados antes de iniciar un proyecto de palma de aceite. Temas como la selección de suelos, irrigación, material genético y costos de transporte, entre otros, son considerados desde el punto de vista económico.
