Although global crude palm oil (CPO) prices saw a daily dip, positive signals remain—especially from domestic fresh fruit bunch (TBS) prices, which have shown increases. The strength in TBS suggests growing optimism among local producers, even as international CPO pricing remains under pressure. Meanwhile, support from rising global demand for palm oil has helped underpin overall price stability.
The bullish trend is further backed by rising interest in biofuel use and consistent demand from major importing countries, which helps cushion against external volatility. For Indonesian palm-oil producers and farmers, this dynamic offers a potentially favorable window—improved TBS prices mean higher returns at the farm level, even if global CPO prices fluctuate.
