Malaysia's plantation ministry said it will keep its biodiesel mandate unchanged after Indonesia lifted its palm oil export ban. The statement responds to objections from the biodiesel industry over a suggestion to slow biofuel use.
Keeping the biodiesel mandate supports steady palm oil demand for fuel, which limits downside for vegetable oil prices as export supply recovers.
After 513 past neutral policy events, Palm Oil moved a median 0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.6% to +1.4%), and -0.1% over 20.
