Indonesia and Malaysia are committing to palm-based biodiesel mandates despite higher prices. Indonesia has used a mandatory B30 blend since early 2020, the highest mandated biodiesel mix in the world, to cut diesel imports.
Mandated palm oil blending keeps a large share of output in the fuel market regardless of price, which supports palm oil demand and prices.
After 548 past bullish policy events, Palm Oil moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (61% higher; middle half -0.7% to +2.1%), and +0.9% over 20.
