<p>The <b>palm kernel</b> is the edible seed of the <a href="Oil_palm" class="mw-redirect" title="Oil palm">oil palm</a> fruit. The fruit yields two distinct oils: <a href="Palm_oil" title="Palm oil">palm oil</a> derived from the outer parts of the fruit, and <a href="Palm_kernel_oil" title="Palm kernel oil">palm kernel oil</a> derived from the kernel.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>The pulp left after oil is rendered from the kernel is formed into "palm kernel cake", used either as high-protein feed for dairy cattle or burned in boilers to generate electricity for palm oil mills and surrounding villages.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Uses">Uses</h2></div>
