InfoSAWIT, JAKARTA – Crude palm oil (CPO) prices at PT Kharisma Pemasaran Bersama Nusantara (KPBN) rose on Thursday (March 26, 2026), following gains in the global market.
CPO prices were set at Rp15,615/kg, up Rp242/kg or about 1.57% compared to the previous day.
According to KPBN data, prices were recorded at Rp15,615/kg for Franco Dumai, Rp15,485/kg for Franco Teluk Bayur, and Rp15,415/kg for Talang Duku.
The increase aligns with stronger CPO futures on the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange, where June contracts rose 1.65% to RM4,570 per ton.
The rally was supported by higher global soyoil prices, stronger crude oil, and robust export data.
Cargo surveyors reported that Malaysian palm oil exports for March 1–25 rose between 38.4% and 50.6% month-on-month.
Expectations of higher Indonesian export taxes in April also provided additional support to the market.
Meanwhile, palm oil’s widening discount against gasoil increased its attractiveness as a biodiesel feedstock.
Other markets showed similar trends, with soyoil futures in Dalian rising 0.77% and Chicago prices gaining 0.36%.
These combined factors continue to support CPO prices in both domestic and international markets. (T2)
