In Indonesia, Xinhua reported that Indonesia plans to raise crude palm oil output to 60 million tons annually by 2030, up from 48.2 million tons in 2024, in line with surging demand.
The figures were announced by the President Director of the Plantation Fund Management Agency (BPDP) Eddy Abdurrachman.
He noted that demand for crude palm oil continues to grow across the food, biofuel, and oleochemical industries, as well as for exports.
“The target of 60 million tons per year by 2030 can meet needs for consumption, biofuels, and oleochemicals,” he was quoted by local media as saying.
The government has also launched a plantation rejuvenation program aimed at improving palm oil productivity, he added.
