Malaysia's B20 biodiesel mandate for peninsular Malaysia has been delayed to December 2021, while Sarawak has run it since September 2020 and Sabah is due in June 2021. The Malaysian Biodiesel Association expects the mandate to absorb over one million tonnes of CPO.

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.
