The Cameroon Palm Oil Company, SOCAPALM, has returned 2,566 hectares of arable land to the State at its Dibombari plantation in Moungo Division, Littoral Region. The move reduces the company’s concession and formally restores the land to State ownership, with implications for land management and agricultural planning in the area. The land return was announced during a tripartite meeting bringing together administrative authorities, SOCAPALM officials and representatives of local communities. As a result of the operation, SOCAPALM’s concession in Dibombari has been reduced from 11,210 hectares to 8,643 hectares, a cut of about 23%. SOCAPALM added that the initiative was launched in 2016 in collaboration with the State, land registry services, administrative authorities and local communities.
