1. Palm Oil Market: Industry Prospects and Profitability
Driven by historically low prices, long shelf stability, nutritional benefits as well
as rising demand from the bioenergy and oleochemicals industries, the palm
oil market has been witnessing strong growth over the last few decades.
Palm oil, which is derived from the fruit of the oil palm (Elaeis Guinnesis) tree, originated in
West Guinea and has been consumed across the globe for more than 5,000 years. The, large
scale cultivation of oil palm on a commercial basis, however, began only during the mid-
1990s. Oil palms have a lifespan of 25-28 years and yield more oil per hectare of land than
any other crop. They are also relatively less reliant on fertilisers, pesticides and water
compared to other monoculture crops. When the oil palm is processed, it produces two types
of oil — palm oil from the flesh of the fruit and palm kernel oil from the seed or kernel.
Some of the major areas where palm oil is used are:
• Cooking oil in the manufacture of margarine, non-dairy creams and ice cream
• Cosmetics
• Natural fossil fuels used as biofuel in the transport industry
• Manufacturing of soaps and detergents
• Production of greases, lubricants and candles
• Pharmaceuticals
• Water-treatment products
• Production of bactericides

2. Driven by historically low prices, long shelf stability, and strong nutritional benefits - palm oil
leverages natural advantages that position it as a likely long-term staple global diet. Rapidly
growing populations, shifting consumption patterns, as well as rising demand from the
bioenergy and oleochemicals industries, have resulted in sustained high demand for crude
palm oil making it the world’s largest consumed edible oil. Palm oil currently accounts for
34% of the total global edible oil consumed, followed by soybean oil (27%), rapeseed oil (15%)
and sunflower seed oil (9%).
Indonesia is currently the largest producer of palm oil accounting for 47% of the total global
production, followed by Malaysia (37%). Other major producers include - Thailand, Columbia,
Nigeria, Papua New Guinea, Ecuador, etc. India currently represents the biggest consumer of
palm oil accounting for 16% of the total global consumption. India is followed by Indonesia,
China, European Union and Malaysia.
