VIEW PROFILE
The year 2018 has indeed been a challenging year for the Malaysian oil palm industry with lower palm oil production, exports and prices, but finishing with higher palm oil closing stocks. The first half of 2019, however, showed mixed performance of the Malaysian oil palm industry. CPO production, export demand and imports, all three of these increased as compared to the corresponding period of 2018. On the other hand, high carry-over stocks coupled with high production had pushed palm oil stocks higher in the first half of 2019. Weaker vegetable oils prices had affected CPO price thereby, affecting export revenue. This paper will provide an overview of the performance of the Malaysian oil palm industry for the first half of 2019 vis-à-vis the first half of 2018, covering oil palm planted area, productivity, exports, imports, stocks and the prices of oil palm products, as well as the expected development for the second half of 2019.
