STATISTICAL NEWS

Vegetable oil prices rise sharply

Vegetable oil prices have conti nued their sharp rise since mid-December, with palm kernel oil (PKO) leading the way with a rise of more than 50%, according to Lipsa’s January market report.

Palm oil prices conti nue to break historical records. Key factors to follow ahead include producti on in Indonesia and Malaysia, weather, possible labour problems in Malaysia, palm’s discount against soyabean oil, ferti liser costs, import rates in India, and mandates for use in biodiesel.

The uncertainty over the confl ict between Russia and Ukraine, combined with the high prices of other vegetable oils, are supporti ng sunfl ower oil prices. For the new harvest, a signifi cant increase in planted area is expected.

Record rapeseed area forecast

The Internati onal Grains Council (IGC) has raised its global rapeseed area esti mate for the 2022/23 marketi ng season to a record 40M ha due to price increases and buoyant demand in the current crop year, UFOP reports. This translates to a more than 2% rise on the current crop year.

The IGC sees the largest culti vati on increases in key rapeseed-producing countries, such as Canada and the EU-27. According to Agrarmarkt Informati ons-Gesellschaft (mbH), around 5.6M ha of rapeseed could be available for harvest in the EU in 2022, mainly due to expansions in France and Germany. The IGC also expects a 4% expansion in canola area in Canada to 9.4M ha.

Global soyabean producti on revised downward

The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) has signifi cantly lowered its forecast for global soyabean supply and demand for 2021/22, UFOP reports. World producti on is forecast down 9.22M tonnes to 372.56M tonnes mainly due to conti nued dryness in South America. Global soyabean processing is projected to fall 2.02M tonnes to 325.72M tonnes. World trade is also revised downward to 170.74M tonnes, some 6M tonnes above the level recorded for the 2020/21 season. China is set to remain the world’s main soyabean importer with an unchanged import volume of 100M tonnes.
