African Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis)

Capable of significant CO₂ absorption when managed sustainably.
Biodiversity Support: In a properly managed plantation, oil palms can co-exist with diverse wildlife.
Water Absorption: Roots absorb excess water in swampy areas, making them useful for managing moisture.
Life Cycle: Oil palm trees begin to produce fruit after 3-4 years and can continue for up to 25-30 years. Their total life cycle may extend beyond 50 years
