# Indonesia Dec Crude Palm Oil Exports to Fall Slightly -Reuters survey | GIMNI

> A Reuters survey projected Indonesia's December 2017 crude palm oil exports edged down to 2.51 million tonnes from 2.52 million in November, while output fell to 3.52 million tonnes. Lower Indian demand after an import tax hike and competition from Malaysia's levy-free exports are weighing on Indonesian shipments. Stockpiles were forecast to fall to 3.2 million tonnes.

## Why it matters

Softer Indonesian export volumes and falling output tighten global palm supply somewhat, but competition from duty-free Malaysian cargoes limits the price support.
