Nusa Dua, 12 November 2026 – Indonesia expects palm oil product exports to reach about 35 million tonnes in 2026, Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto said at an industry conference in Nusa Dua on 12 November.

The 35 million-tonne figure is a full-year forecast, not a tally of completed shipments.

For Asian refiners, food manufacturers and plantation investors, the forecast offers a guide to how much Indonesian supply may reach overseas markets this year.

Domestic demand for biodiesel competes for feedstock, while industry representatives warned that dry weather could reduce production, with the largest effect expected next year.
