# Indonesia's B50 Mandate: Palm Oil Trade With India Enters a New Phase

> Indonesia plans a palm oil framework overhaul from January 1, 2027, combining a centralised export system, a new export service fee and full rollout of a B50 biodiesel mandate. Futures have begun pricing tighter long-term supply, while nearby prices remain driven by inventories, crude oil and competing vegetable oils.

## Why it matters

Pulling more palm oil into Indonesia's domestic biodiesel use would tighten exportable supply from 2027, likely raising India's edible oil costs and supporting palm oil prices.
