In Ukraine, UkrAgro Consult reported that Malaysia’s palm oil exports during January are expected to total 944,000 tons, a 5.58% decrease compared to the same period last month, when exports totaled over 1 million tons, according to data released by shipping inspection agency SGS,
The agency notes that this indicates weakening international demand and could lead to a relative oversupply in the domestic market, putting downward pressure on palm oil spot prices.
Meanwhile, according to data released by the Central Bureau of Statistics Indonesia, Indonesia’s palm oil exports continue to show strong growth in 2025, reaching an annual value of $24.42 billion, up 21.83% from the previous year; the export volume was 23.61 million tons, an increase of 9.09% compared to last year, the report stated.
The increase in exports reflects expanded production, but does not account for the simultaneous increase in demand and the growing risk of oversupply, it added.
