Oil palm and structural transformation

  • Why is oil palm plantation growing in Indonesia?
  • Oil palm plantation has expanded rapidly in Indonesia, driven by the enormous increase in the global demand for oil palm products. While the production and exporting of oil palm products have stimulated economic growth and improved living standards of local people, the expansion has imposed significant costs on the environment.
  • Why is Indonesian oil palm demand rising?
  • Therefore, the trend of rising demand for oil palm products from Indonesia is expected to continue even if there are growing movements boycotting Indonesian oil palm products due to concerns about the threats to environmental conservation.
  • Where do Indonesian oil palm products come from?
  • European Union and India were the two largest markets for Indonesian oil palm products, accounting for around 1/3 to 2/3 of Indonesian exports. From 1996 to 2015, oil palm products exported to the European Union decreased from over 57% to around 18%, though the absolute amount increased gradually.
  • Can Indonesia meet its domestic demand for palm oil?
  • In fact, Indonesia can meet its domestic demand for CPO until 2025 using the equivalent of 63% of the oil palm planted area in 2014, while keeping the same average yield. However, this would curtail exports and the option to profit from the development of global palm oil markets.
