Summary of Palm Oil Industry Conference Call Industry Overview - **Industry**: Palm Oil - **Key Countries**: Indonesia, Malaysia Core Insights and Arguments 1. **Indonesia's Palm Oil Production Forecast**: JAPKI predicts a 10% increase in Indonesia's palm oil production by 2025, but actual production may decrease by 2%-3% due to government land reclamation of illegally occupied areas, affecting 4.5 million hectares, or 1/6 of total planting area [1][2][7] 2. **Malaysia's Market Analysis**: Malaysia's production is only 1/5 of Indonesia's, limited by labor shortages and rising fertilizer costs. Monthly inventory fluctuates around 500,000 tons, insufficient to impact the market significantly [1][3][7] 3. **Biodiesel Policy Driving Demand**: Indonesia's B40 and B50 biodiesel initiatives are expected to significantly boost palm oil demand. Rising soybean oil prices in the US and Argentina are leading countries like India and China to switch to palm oil, resulting in a slight increase in recent inventories [1][4][7] 4. **Aging Palm Trees Increasing Supply Pressure**: Malaysia faces challenges with aging palm trees, which require frequent replacement to maintain stable supply. The slow replacement rate exacerbates supply issues [1][6][7] 5. **Global Biodiesel Development Trends**: While US biodiesel policies are cooling, there remains potential for demand growth. China is actively developing Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), with a target to increase SAF blending to 5% within three years, supporting oil prices [1][12][14] Additional Important Insights 1. **Supply Changes in Indonesia and Malaysia**: Indonesia's palm oil production is crucial, with official figures indicating an annual output of 18-20 million tons. However, the transparency of these figures is low, and the government's land reclamation efforts are expected to significantly impact production [2][8] 2. **B50 Policy Status**: The B50 policy in Indonesia has completed testing but may face delays due to funding and technical issues. The new president is optimistic about advancing this policy [9][10] 3. **US Biodiesel Policy Impact**: Recent cooling in US biodiesel policies has created uncertainty, but demand is still expected to grow, with a projected 23% increase in soybean oil usage for biodiesel this summer [11] 4. **China's SAF Developments**: China is increasing its SAF production capacity, which will require more raw materials, thereby supporting overall oil prices [12][17] 5. **Malaysia's Export Adjustments**: Malaysia is reducing palm oil exports to meet domestic aviation fuel needs, tightening supply further [13][27] 6. **Global Biodiesel Trends**: Countries worldwide are pushing biodiesel projects, which will support palm oil demand. Chinese companies are pre-purchasing supplies to mitigate future shortages [27] Conclusion - The palm oil market is expected to tighten by 2025 due to supply constraints in Indonesia and Malaysia, while demand remains strong driven by biodiesel policies. Investment opportunities exist, but close monitoring of policy changes and execution is essential [7][22]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In the context of sufficient domestic soybean supply and poor import soybean crushing margins, it is expected that soybean and rapeseed meal will experience short - term wide - range fluctuations [3]. - For US soybeans, the 13% tariff on US soybean imports is still higher than the 3% tariff on South American soybeans. Market expectations suggest that the purchase of US soybeans is limited to state - owned oil mills, and the amount flowing into crushing is limited. China has promised to purchase 12 million tons of US soybeans this season and 25 million tons per year for the next three years, but it is expected that part of the 12 million tons of purchased US soybeans will enter the national reserve [4]. - In South America, the rainfall in the central - western region of Brazil in the next two weeks is favorable for soybean sowing. Data from the US Climate Prediction Center shows that the La Nina phenomenon may last until February next year. Attention should be paid to the impact of weather on South American soybean production [4]. - Domestically, the widespread losses in domestic import soybean crushing margins have strengthened the price - holding intention of oil mills, which supports the price of soybean meal [4]. - For trading strategies, for single - sided trading, the support level for soybean meal 2601 is recommended to be around 2900 - 3000. For arbitrage, it is recommended to wait and see. Overall, soybean and rapeseed meal are expected to experience short - term wide - range fluctuations [5]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1. Periodic and Spot Market - Last week, the soybean meal futures fluctuated strongly. The main reasons for the increase were the poor import soybean crushing margins, which supported the meal price, and the possibility that part of the imported US soybeans might enter the national reserve. The September USDA report slightly favored the bearish side. The US Department of Agriculture lowered the estimated yield per acre of soybeans in 2025/26 by 0.1 bushels to 53.5 bushels per acre, increased the soybean planting area by 200,000 acres, increased the crushing volume by 15 million bushels, and decreased the export volume by 20 million bushels, resulting in an increase in the ending inventory from the August estimate of 290 million bushels to 300 million bushels [14]. - The spread between soybean and rapeseed meal fluctuated widely and is currently at a historically low level. It is recommended to wait and see [20]. - The 1 - 5 spread of soybean meal fluctuated weakly. It is recommended to wait and see [22]. 3.2. Supply Side - According to the US Department of Agriculture's export sales report, as of the week ending September 18, 2025, the net sales volume of US soybeans in the market year was 724,459 tons [30]. - As of the week ending October 31, 2025, the US soybean crushing profit was $2.15 per bushel, a 7.73% decrease from the previous week and a 33.02% decrease from the same period last year [36]. - In September 2025, China imported 12.869 million tons of soybeans, a month - on - month increase of 590,000 tons and a year - on - year increase of 1.498 million tons or 13.17%.
