Palm oil stocks higher

Malaysian palm oil futures fell more than 1 percent on Friday, retreating from the previous session's seven-month high, hindered by a stronger ringgit and losses in U.S. soyoil on the Chicago Board of Trade.

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s total palm oil stocks in February increased 1.34% to 3.05 million tonnes from 3.01 million tonnes in January.

Crude palm oil (CPO) stocks rose 2.29% to 1.92 million tonnes during the month under review from 1.87 million tonnes in the preceding month.
