The Success Story of the past 30 Years Substantial growth in world production of palm oil In 1980: 4.6 Mn T or 8% of 17 oils & fats In 1990: 11.0 Mn T or 14% In 2000: 21.9 Mn T or 19% there somebody to pick me up tomorrow at the airport In 2010: 46.2 Mn T or 27% In 2012: 53.9 Mn T (plus 5.9 Mn T of Palmkern oil) In 2015: 62.1 Mn T or 30% (only 6% of area) In 2025 at least 90 Mn T of palm oil required

Acreage limitations. It will be increasingly difficult to expand oilseed and grain production into new areas. Biggest growth is likely to occur in Brazil, Russia and, possibly, on the African Continent. Yield improvement essential Further growth in palm oil plantings in Indonesia, Africa, Brazil and Central America, but little potential for expansion into new areas in Malaysia, Thailand and Papua New Guinea. Labour shortage could become an issue Water is another limiting factor. The big challenge for the future is to raise yields per hectare (oilseeds, grains, tree crops). But how quickly can yields (in the field) be increased? Replantings in Malaysia sharply behind requirements. Logistics, logistics, logistics. Summary
Price Prospects - - amidst many uncertainties: Prices have to be suffiencently attractive for marginal producers -- to generate the required supply growth in the years ahead Fluctuating, but downward potential for veg oil prices is limited Veg.oil prices are likely to continue to divorce from mineral oils (as long as mineral oils are offered below US-$ 70-75 per barrel). In the next twelve months likely downward pressure in meal to become bullish for oil. Seed oils will have to finance a larger share of the crush value (rising oil share). Key uncertainties: Weather and crop development ( duration & magnitude of the current El Niño), farmer selling, currencies, politics,
Palm oil prices may soon bottom out - - getting support from rape oil and soya oil (rising oil share) Upward potential in Oct/March 2015/16 and beyond Assuming some yield losses from El Nino, I expect upward potential of fob export prices for crude & processed palm oil by 50-100 US $ in the next 6-7 months, mainly in Jan/March 2016 1400 1300 1200 1100 1000 900 800 700 600 500 400 300 Monthly Prices of Palm Olein fob (US-$/T) R BD palm olein, fob M alaysia 10-year average from Jan 2 005 until D ec 2014 Jan04 Jan05 Jan06 Jan07 Jan08 Jan09 Jan10 Jan11 Jan12 Jan13 Jan14 Jan15 Monthly prices from Jan 200 4 until July 20 15
