Dwarf Tenera Oil Palm Sprouted Seeds – Early Fruiting, High Oil Yield, Compact Growth

Dwarf Tenera Oil Palm Sprouted Seeds are premium hybrid seeds bred for early maturity, shorter tree height, and high oil production efficiency. This improved tenera variety combines the best traits of Dura (thick-shelled) and Pisifera (shell-less) parents, resulting in a compact, high-yielding palm that starts fruiting early and produces abundant, oil-rich bunches.

Developed for tropical climates and adaptable to various soil conditions, Dwarf Tenera is ideal for both smallholder farmers and large commercial plantations seeking maximum productivity and easier harvesting.

Key Features

• Early Fruiting: Begins to bear fruits within 2½–3 years after field planting.

• Dwarf Growth Habit: Shorter height (about 7–9 meters at maturity), making harvesting and maintenance easier.

• High Oil Yield: Produces up to 7–9 tons of crude palm oil per hectare per year under good agronomic management.

• Hybrid Superiority: Result of Dura × Pisifera cross — ensures thin shell and high oil content.

• Resistant & Durable: Tolerant to major palm pests and diseases; performs well in both wet and moderately dry zones.

• Long Economic Life: Productive lifespan of 25–30 years with stable yields.

• ☀️ Adapted to Tropical Conditions: Excellent performance in humid and semi-humid regions of Nigeria and West Africa.
