JAKARTA (Sept 1): Indonesia exported 2.23 million metric tonnes of palm oil in July, up 15.44% on a yearly basis, but exports in the first seven months of this year declined annually, statistics bureau data showed on Tuesday.

Indonesia, the world’s biggest palm oil exporter, shipped 13.51 million tonnes of crude and refined palm oil in the January to July period, down 0.97% from the same period a year earlier.

The seven month shipments were valued at US$14.79 billion (RM59.7 billion), up 5.49% from 2025.

The bureau’s data excludes palm kernel oil, oleochemicals and biodiesel.

Gapki, Indonesia’s palm oil association, usually releases its own numbers at a later date, covering more products, and thus has different export figures.
