THE Palm and Lauric Oils Conference & Exhibition Price Outlook (POC
2010) was a lot more crowded than last year and there were more
Americans. The higher turnout was in anticipation of CME Group
announcing the launch of its new US dollar-denominated cash-settled CPO
futures contract, called CUPO, on CME Globex electronic trading

Europe Weighs Forests and Palm OilWednesday, 03 Mar 2010Everything is a question of definition… In a document which has provoked debate at the heart of the organization, the European Commission has attempted to establish criteria to define what makes a biofuel “sustainable”. The issue carries huge implications: Europe has called for 20% of energy to be derived from renewable sources, which is to say environmentally friendly, by 2020. Regarding land allocated to the production of biofuels, the document argues that standing forest and palm oil plantations are interchangeable.
