> The rupiah weakened to Rp 18,109 per US dollar at Friday’s open, down about 0.15% from the previous close. The article attributes pressure in part to higher crude prices, reporting WTI at $90.52 a barrel and Brent at $98.29, above the oil-price assumption in Indonesia’s state budget.

## Why it matters

Higher oil prices increase Indonesia’s import bill and add fiscal pressure, while a weaker rupiah makes dollar-priced energy imports more expensive. This combination can raise domestic input costs for feed and livestock producers.
