# Analysts expect Malaysian palm oil prices to fall during H2 as production ramps up  : The Daily Digest

> AmInvestment Bank expects crude palm oil to average $558.46 per tonne in the second half of 2017, down from $674.80 in the first half, as production seasonally ramps up toward a peak in September or October. Only a severe El Niño hitting output is seen as a bullish risk, while weaker demand in China and India could add pressure.

## Why it matters

Seasonal output growth and weaker Asian import demand point to lower palm oil prices in H2, which lowers the cost of this vegetable oil as a feed ingredient.
