Malaysia Palm Oil Industry Outlook to 2018 – Demand for Biofuel to Drive Production

Malaysia is one of the largest players in the production and exports of palm oil worldwide. The multi-utility of palm oil and the favorable climate of Malaysia supporting the cultivation of palm oil have worked as a stimulator for palm oil production in Malaysia. Malaysia palm oil industry witnessed a decline of 4.70% over the period 2008-2013 in terms of domestic consumption of palm oil. The leading factors which have been driving this industry are the demand for oils and fats, economic advantages of palm oil and the non food uses of palm oil like in oleo chemicals and bio fuels.

Palm oil planted area of Malaysia can be segmented into mature and immature. Mature oil palms are those which give the maximum palm oil yield. The immature palm oil planted area has witnessed a higher growth of 4.23% during the period 2008-2013 than mature palm oil planted area, which experienced a growth rate of 2.94%. The total palm oil planted area of Malaysia at increased at a CAGR of 3.11 during 2008-2013.

The rising awareness of environment preservation has led to countries switching from using fossil fuels to bio fuels which is a cleaner and renewable source of energy. The European Union also recently released a mandate stating its goals of reducing green house gas emissions by 20% by 2020 also increasing the use of renewable energy by 20% by 2020, thereby giving a boost to bio fuel production in Malaysia. The bio fuel production in Malaysia had increased at a CAGR of 12.35% during the period 2008-2013.

The Malaysia Pam Oil Industry is highly fragmented comprising of a large number of market players.
