What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A new review published in Agricultural Ecology and Environment examines the global palm oil industry, which supplies about 30% of the world's vegetable oil. This commodity is widely used in China's food industry, including instant noodles and baked products. Most global supplies of palm oil originate from Indonesia and Malaysia.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The expansion of palm oil production has been linked to serious environmental issues, including deforestation, peatland degradation, and biodiversity loss. For the industry to support climate goals, production must avoid forests and peatlands and be backed by effective governance and reliable monitoring.

Market shifts are underway as Indonesia's export controls benefit Malaysia, while India has introduced anti-dumping duties on imports from both Indonesia and Malaysia.
