From September 22 to 24, 2026, we attended the Cenipalma 2026 National Oil Palm Conference in Villavicencio, Colombia. Our delegation included representatives from Viveros San Simón, Agropecuaria San Simón, Inversiones El Palmeral, and Agrosimón.
We went to deepen our technical knowledge, explore new technologies, and exchange practical insights that could help advance Venezuela’s oil palm sector.
At the conference, we learned about advances in mechanization, automation, agricultural AI, soil management, crop nutrition, processing, energy efficiency, and sustainability. We also made progress in talks with Cenipalma and Tecnopalma about technical expertise, training, specialist support, and services that could benefit Venezuelan growers.
The program included a technical visit to Unipalma de los Llanos, where we saw how automation, process control, energy efficiency, and sustainability practices are applied to cultivation and industrial processing.
Events like Cenipalma 2026 help us bring research, technology, and innovation to our oil palm operations and the growers in our supply chain.
We continue to build expertise and partnerships and create opportunities for a more productive, efficient, and sustainable oil palm sector in Venezuela.
