Malaysia end-Dec palm oil stocks smaller than expected as output plummets

Malaysia's end-December palm oil stocks fell 12.88% from November to 1.58 million tonnes, below expectations. Crude palm oil output slumped 11.26% to 1.45 million tonnes amid a persistent labour shortage, and domestic consumption rose 31%.

WHY IT MATTERS

Lower stocks and production tighten the vegoil balance heading into 2022, supporting palm oil prices and reducing exportable supplies for feed-related markets.
