Cenipalma's Leaves and Soils Analysis Laboratory continues its process of growth and continuous improvement. Its control system has been used as reference by other laboratories in the country and by neighboring countries. In this Conference, many of the myths existing regarding the effects of the consumption of palm oil on health and human nutrition were scientifically clarified and ideas were given on the legislation and the nutritional effects of organic palm oil, as well as the market possibilities and certification of same. The Vision designed for the year 2020 by Fedepalma and the possibilities of Malaysian investment are great opportunities at a short and medium term, for the country's palm sector.

En cuanto al Laboratorio de Análisis Foliares y de Suelos de Cenipalma continúa su proceso de crecimiento y mejoramiento continuo. Su sistema de control ha sido tomado como referencia por otros laboratorios del país y por países vecinos. En esta Conferencia se aclararon, de manera científicamente, muchos de los mitos existentes sobre los efectos del consumo de aceite de palma en la salud y nutrición humana y se dieron luces sobre la legislación y los efectos nutricionales del aceite de palma orgánico, así como las posibilidades de mercado y certificación del mismo. La Visión trazada para el 2020 por Fedepalma y las posibilidades de inversión malasia son grandes oportunidades, a corto y mediano plazo, para el sector palmero del país. Estas oportunidades se ven respaldadas por el Plan Colombia y la actitud que se percibe del Gobierno Nacional para reactivar el campo e incentivar la inversión extranjera.
