PETALING JAYA: Analysts are mostly “neutral” on the plantation sector, projecting average crude palm oil (CPO) prices at RM4,200 to RM4,300 per tonne for 2025 and RM4,000 to RM4,200 per tonne for 2026.
According to the Malaysian Palm Oil Board’s latest September statistics, the local palm oil inventory rose to 2.36 million tonnes, as higher exports were offset by weaker domestic consumption, increased imports and an elevated supply in the opening stock level.
