Malaysian palm oil futures were trading around the MYR 4,600-a-tonne level, near a six-month low of MYR 4,500 hit earlier in a week as supply concerns eased. Indonesia has recently announced an export acceleration scheme to ship at least 1 million tonnes of crude palm oil and derivatives. The world's biggest exporter also reduced the maximum export tax rate and levy for crude palm oil to $488 per tonne from $575 per tonne to boost shipments. Meanwhile, in Malaysia, the production is expected to increase in the months ahead on higher crops and as migrant workers are set to return.
