Asia
Crude palm oil prices in Asia moved upward during the quarter, supported by tighter supply and better downstream demand. In China, prices were about 8.75 RMB/kg (Spot FD) in January and around 9.25 RMB/kg in March, reflecting a 6% increase from January to March. The increase was mainly driven by tight feedstock availability from producing countries, firm market sentiment, and improved demand from the food sector and routine restocking activity. In India, crude palm oil prices were about INR 99.88/kg (FOB) in January and around INR 110.12/kg in March, marking a 7.73% increase over the same period. The rise was supported by improved buying interest, as palm oil remained attractive for edible oil demand, along with steady import-side purchasing and firm sentiment in the broader vegetable oils market.
Europe
In Europe, crude palm oil prices followed a firm trend during the quarter, supported by strong global edible oil sentiment and tight feedstock conditions. Market direction remained upward as buyers tracked firm overseas palm oil values and steady downstream consumption. Demand from the food and biofuel segments kept market sentiment supported, while cautious purchasing limited any sharper movement. Overall, the regional market stayed stable to firm, with price direction largely linked to supply tightness in exporting countries.
North America
In North America, crude palm oil prices also moved on a firm trend, supported by gains in the wider vegetable oils complex and stable downstream demand. Regional sentiment stayed positive as supply-side tightness in global markets continued to influence pricing. Buying interest from food and industrial end-users helped maintain support in the market, even as participants remained watchful of shifts in broader edible oil pricing. The overall trend stayed upward, with market direction guided by firm global fundamentals.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, crude palm oil prices are expected to remain firm if feedstock supply stays tight and downstream demand remains steady. Any improvement in supply conditions could limit further gains.

Asia
Asian crude palm oil markets experienced a progressive weakness throughout the fourth quarter, with regional variations in timing and intensity of price movements. Chinese markets displayed initial strength during the opening phase, reaching elevated levels before entering sustained decline as abundant supply from Malaysian and Indonesian origins pressured regional pricing. The prices were about 1294 USD/MT (Spot FD) in October and around 1212 USD/MT in December.
The correction continued through the middle portion as seasonal production increases from Southeast Asian sources created oversupply conditions relative to immediate consumption requirements. Late-quarter developments brought modest recovery from the period's lowest levels, though prices remained below opening-quarter positions. Meanwhile, Indian markets followed a similar downward trajectory, with persistent weakness throughout the entire period as refiners adjusted procurement strategies in response to changing price spreads between tropical oils and competing vegetable oils.
Import demand increased during the latter portion as buyers capitalized on attractive pricing levels, with palm oil purchases rising as refiners reduced soyoil and sunflower oil imports due to unfavourable price differentials. The prices were about 1160 USD/MT (FOB) in October and around 1090 USD/MT in December in the Indian markets.
Europe
European crude palm oil markets followed Asian pricing trends as the quarter progressed, with values declining progressively throughout the period. Supply from Southeast Asian origins remained ample, creating favourable conditions for buyers across food manufacturing and industrial applications. The downward trajectory reflected broader global fundamentals, with production forecasts indicating continued output growth from major producing countries.
Demand from food processing sectors remained steady, while industrial consumption maintained baseline levels without significant variation. Competition from alternative vegetable oils influenced procurement decisions as refiners evaluated relative pricing across different feedstock options, with some buyers adjusting blend ratios in response to changing cost structures.
North America
North American markets followed global pricing weakness, with import values declining through the latter portion of the quarter after earlier period strength. The easing reflected expectations of ample global supply availability from Southeast Asian sources, with refiners and industrial consumers adjusting purchasing strategies accordingly. Food manufacturing, industrial processing, and biodiesel feedstock sectors maintained baseline consumption levels while buyers capitalized on improved pricing conditions compared to earlier in the year.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, crude palm oil prices are expected to face continued pressures in the coming months as production growth in Indonesia and Malaysia persists while seasonal demand patterns remain moderate.
Crude Palm Oil is known as an edible oil that is derived from the pulp of fruit of oil palms. In appearance, the colour of this pulp is red and so is the colour of crude oil. This colour is the result of high inactive vitamin A content. Crude Palm Oil is also known to be distinct from kernel oil or coconut oil.
