Global production high case Global production base case Global production low case Global production better-seed case
Global palm oil production increases on the back of increasing South-East Asian production
Global palm oil production decreases due to decreasing South-East Asian production, a result of replanting and old oil palm trees
Improving global palm oil production situation, as oil palm trees which were planted in Indonesia and Malaysia from 2018 to 2023 reach their young mature and mature stages
Low global palm oil price environment
Neutral to already slightly bullish price environment Bullish price environment
Global palm oil consumption is required to increase more than ‘long-term’ consumption. Thus, low palm oil prices are needed
Global palm oil consumption will have to decline from previous years, as global production decreases
Global palm oil consumption will decrease more than ‘long-term’ consumption in order to adjust for global palm oil supply availability
Other vegetable oils will fill the difference between palm oil base-case consumption and ‘long-term’ consumption
