TT Sorry delayed response have been away. Would not be the first time the runner-up won ! rgds

fk1. Nobuke had 40 million shares in Nov 2015 but this was all sold by April 2016. Don't think any RNS was issued.

Maybe he will choose to comment on some of the more negative points raised here recently.

Am still waiting for my ISA transfers to go through to my new provider. This time the whole transfer has been held up/delayed/revised because one of the 50 odd stocks was temporarily suspended (Totally) and thus not included in the initial transfer listing. Never once has Smart Investor ever made a promised phone call about any problem. So I have effectively been blocked from any trading for over 6 weeks, so far.....

Sorry see you go Tricky. You were a large holder and your sale will soon hit the LSE board.

Thanks TT for all the info. You should come to the next AGM. Wacapol idea from the Hadcocks.ex Lever Bros/Unilever. On extraction rate Dekel achieved 22.8pct first quarter 2017 slightly lower than 23.1 in comparable period previous year due lower oil content in the ffb's. With the new empty fruit bunch press operational second quarter this year they should get 24pct on a daily basis. The PKO extraction is above 42pct. rgds

Hopefully the old adage ''bad numbers always take longer to add up'' will not apply here......

tt. Thanks yours. One point that Phil did not mention was that last years numbers were affected by Nigeria and the Naira which severely hampered trade. In fact DKL suddenly had more bunches than it could handle. This is why additional storage for cpo was installed. But getting the factory to run much nearer capacity is obviously what is necessary Not sure about the 15pct in the top month but Dkl is getting something like 70 pct in the first half of the year with extraction rates of around 24pct Thanks for the info on Voltared.Think the original idea started with a chap from Unilever....

They rarely get it correct....

TT. Good post. Don't know the answers. I specifically asked at the AGM whether the DKL ownership precludes them getting supply from certain coops/larger Islamic growers and was assured this was not an issue. Think FK1/Cat know more about the deal with their growers. Do you know whether any of the old Wacapol mills are being used in the CI ?

Zaha makes all the difference.....

TT/FKI Think PZ still holds just over 30pct of Norpalm.and TT is correct that it used to be the old Ghana State Farms.Some 4500ha. Guess the biggest competition in Ghana is GOPDC 22000ha owned by SIAT in Belgium (Vandebeeck family) in which Sinochem have a big interest. Then comes Benso which is Wilmar (Kuok) the same competitor that DKl has in CI thro Sifca. And Unilever has Twifo just a bit smaller than Norpalm. So some fairly heavy hitters sitting and watching.DKL with interest......

picking up some nice parcels spending � 10000 a time. Assume also that the 150,000 and 2 x 75000 lots are also buys. This should cement the price at just above 12p. Maybe somebody knows good numbers are coming out early next week.....

This is still working......

We were forced onto Smart Investor. It was Barclays way of saying they want to get out of stockbroking.....and focus on online banking.

You are new to LSE. You make some valid points and are obviously familiar with both the area and the oil palm business. However I would still appreciate your answers to my original post. rgds

Have just read, and replied, to your posting on PAL. The same comments apply ....

You really don't like this company very much do you ? Are you an actual shareholder or a nearby producer with a grudge ?

Am in the process of moving from Smart Investor to IWEB. Part of Halifax thus Lloyds. Could take 3 months as so many looking move which means I am unable trade to any great extent. All my shares held in an ISA. Aside from the fact that the SI platform is rubbish they were proposing increase my admin fee from � 18 every 6 months to � 30 a month. With IWEB there is no admin fee and every trade is just �5. However I do still have a small shareholding in BARC at around the same price as you......

FKI Think you might mean Atlantis which you mentioned to me over a year ago at the DKL agm. I sold out in the mid 60's and took a small profit, but it certainly looks interesting at the current price. PHIL Dekel is my second largest holding but represents just under 10 pct of my portfolio.
