Senior Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) officials suggest new restrictions on soybean imports in the government regulations to implement an Omnibus Jobs Creation Law. THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Commodity: Oil, Palm Production Post maintains 2020/21 palm oil production at 42.5 million tons, an increase from 41.5 million tons in 2019/20 (see GAIN ID2020-0009). The national weather agency (BMKG) projected a La Nina event will impact Indonesia, causing higher than normal rainfall during the final quarter of 2020 before subsiding in February 2021. The higher levels of rainfall are expected to improve yields in areas where other inputs such as fertilizer are maintained. Consumption Based on the latest Biofuels Producer Association (APROBI) data, year-to-date biodiesel distribution reached 6.4 billion liters through September 2020, slightly lower than previous estimates. Annualized, total biodiesel distribution in 2020 is expected to reach 8.5 billion liters, 88 percent of total government allocation. Biodiesel exports have declined significantly to 24 million liters due to strong competition from cheaper fossil diesel.

  • Coconut Water
    COCONUT WATER Coconut water concentrate and coconut water (single strength) are two of the many types of products supplied by iTi Tropicals. Fruit Overview: Coconuts are the fruit of the coconut palm, native to countries such as Vietnam, Thailand, Sri Lanka, India, The Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia. They can also be found throughout South and Central America and the Caribbean. While the coconut is a simple dry nut composed of inner fibers, inside lies white, fleshy edible coconut meat, along with refreshing coconut water. The coconut palm has been called the “tree of life” because it offers a source of food, drink, oil, medicine, fiber, timber, thatch, mats, fuel, and domestic utensils for the local populations where it is grown. While coconuts have many uses including pure coconut, coconut cream, and coconut oil, coconut water is among the most popular. Coconut water is naturally filtered for nine months through the dense fibers of the coconut creating a nutritious, pure, and refreshing isotonic beverage that can be mixed with just about any other flavor or fruit without dominating the taste or color. Food Application: Coconut water, (also called coconut juice) is not only refreshing and cool, it has five essential electrolytes, including more potassium than a banana. It has no added sugars, fat, cholesterol or preservatives, and is significantly lower in calories than many other juices. Because coconut wa- ter is 100% juice and is extremely versatile, it can stand alone as a refreshing drink, or it can be blended. It can be the base of tropical drinks, teas, coffee, sauces, cocktails, smoothies, and can even be used as a cooking medium, broth, or marinade.

Palm oil exports and soybean imports for 2019/20 are revised downward due to expected weaker demand overseas and domestically as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Commodities Oil, palm Production In January 2020, the Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) officially released updated oil palm plantation area data through the publication of MOA Decree 833/2019 (see Oilseeds January 2020 update).

  • Kernel Based Coconut Products A) Coconut
    Kernel Based Coconut Products Coconut kernel is the inner most part of the coconut which is highly nutritious and rich in the fibre content, vitamins and minerals. Some studies concluded that that the dietary fibres can even resist heart attacks, strokes, digestive disorders and regulate bowel activities. Along with that fibres can also increase metabolic rate by restoring the functions of thyroid gland. Coconut flour is the residue obtained after extraction of milk from kernel. It is dried, defatted and finely ground into a powder resembling wheat flour. Coconut flour is low in indigestible carbohydrate and high in fibre (61%). The quality of kernel varies with the variety. Some varieties have more kernel content than others. The property of an oil follows the source from which it is extracted. Coconut kernel contains anti-oxidants which help to flush down the unwanted toxins from the body. This helps in weight reduction and improves the body metabolism. Coconut kernel not only helps in weight reduction, but helps to reduce the cholesterol level in the body. Coconut kernel, especially dried coconut kernel, contains LDH which helps to reduce the cholesterol in body. a) Coconut Oil Coconut oil is the edible oil extracted from the dried kernel which is called copra. Coconut oil has high saturated fat content. So, the oil is slow to oxidize and resist rancidification up to six months at room temperature without spoiling. It is an oil of natural origin. It is edible in raw form and it is saturated and stable compared to other similar oils. It has a pleasing flavour, light colour and pleasant aroma.

  • Superfoods Fact Sheet Coconut (Cocos Nucifera)
    Superfoods Fact Sheet Coconut (Cocos Nucifera) Part Used: Nut A coconut is the fruit of the coconut palm, which has been called one of Nature’s wonders, and it has provided nourishment and health as well a beauty. It is said to have over 1,000 uses. Coconuts are always in season, and a mature palm can yield between 100 to 140 coconuts a year. Each coconut takes around 14 months to fully mature. A young coconut is mainly filled with coconut water and has very little meat, whilst in the mature coconut this ratio changes and there is a thick layer of meat and very little liquid. Coconuts give us not just the sweet meat, and coconut water but also coconut milk and cream and coconut oil. History and Traditional Uses Thought to originally be native to the Indo- Pacific region, coconuts spread around the world and became a ubiquitous sight in the tropics globally. For thousands of years native cultures across the tropics have used the coconut palm and its nuts as an important source of both food and medicine. Ayurvedic medicine recognised the healing properties of coconut oil at least 4,000 years ago and there is a long and diverse list of uses from amenorrhea to parasites, syphilis to ulcers. It is still used to nourish you back to health, speed healing, relieve aches and pains, treat cuts and bruises, speed the healing of broken bones and numerous other conditions.
