In its policy of strengthening self-sufficiency and food security, the Cameroonian government spares no effort. Thus, for some time, through its secular arm the Agricultural Research Institute for Development (IRAD), a hybrid variety, called Tenera, has been developed, capable of boosting the production of palm oil (valued by households and processing industries) in Cameroon. According to researchers at the institute headed by Dr. Noé Woin, Tenera is a hybrid variety obtained from crossing Dura (female parent) and Pisifera (male parent). This variety is reputed to have high yield potential (4.5 tonnes of palm oil per ha per year), tolerant to the crop disease called Fusarium wilt. Tenera, which has a growth of 25 to 36 cm per year, has an operating life of 25 to 30 years. With an unsaturated fatty acid content of 55.05%, it comes into production from 2.5 to 3 years.

A laying hen is a female gallus gallus domesticus raised for the purpose of producing eggs used in human food. Laying hens can be reared on a family or farm, semi-industrial or industrial basis. The breeds of laying hens are many and varied.

Corn is a seasonal crop that can be sown from mid-March until the end of May in the northern hemisphere, depending on the earliness of the variety. Sowing must be carried out as soon as the soil temperature is above 10°C to allow good seed germination.
