KPBN CPO Prices Rise on April 1 as Malaysian Market Extends Rally on Indonesia’s B50 Policy

InfoSAWIT, JAKARTA – Crude palm oil (CPO) prices at PT Kharisma Pemasaran Bersama Nusantara (KPBN) were set at Rp16,225/kg on Wednesday (April 1, 2026), marking an increase of Rp175/kg or around 1.09% compared to Rp16,050/kg recorded on Tuesday (March 31, 2026).

Based on information obtained by InfoSAWIT from KPBN, the Franco Dumai CPO price was set at Rp16,225/kg.

Meanwhile, CPO trading on the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange continued its upward trend for the fifth consecutive day, supported by confirmation of Indonesia’s B50 biodiesel implementation and rising global crude oil prices.

The benchmark June 2026 CPO contract rose by RM33 per ton, or approximately 0.68%, to RM4,861 per ton during the midday break.

The rally reflects positive market sentiment toward Indonesia’s policy to increase the mandatory palm-based biodiesel blending rate to 50% starting July 1, 2026, from the current 40%.

In addition, stronger Malaysian palm oil exports in March also supported prices. A weaker ringgit and higher vegetable oil prices in China further provided additional support to the CPO market.

Cargo surveyor data showed that Malaysian palm oil product exports in March surged significantly, rising between 44.3% and 56.7% month-on-month.

In other global markets, the most active soyoil contract on the Dalian exchange edged up 0.16%, while its palm oil contract slipped 0.1%. Meanwhile, soyoil prices on the Chicago Board of Trade declined by around 0.55%.
