Analyst Dorab Mistry forecast Malaysia's 2019 palm oil output would rise to 20 million tonnes, up from 19.5 million tonnes previously. Malaysian output for January to March set monthly records, but he expects aging trees to limit production later in 2019.
Mistry also kept his Indonesian forecast at 44 million tonnes.
