Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>The world’s supply of cooking oil, already squeezed by war, is getting smaller.<\/p>\n

Two months after Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine upended global agricultural trade, Indonesia is set to ban exports of cooking oil in the wake of a local shortage and soaring prices, adding to a raft of crop protectionism around the world. The country accounts for more than a third of global vegetable-oil exports, with China and India, the two most populous countries, among its top buyers.<\/p>\n

Indonesia\u2019s supply of edible oil to the world is \u201cimpossible to replace,\u201d said Carlos Mera, head of agricultural commodity markets research at Rabobank. \u201cIt\u2019s definitely a big blow.\u201d<\/p>\n

Indonesia is the biggest producer of palm oil, the world\u2019s most consumed edible oil. The southeast Asian nation\u2019s announcement of the ban on Friday sent US futures tied to soybean oil, an alternative to palm, soaring to the highest price on record for a third straight day. In the UK some supermarkets are limiting purchases of cooking oils, like sunflower, olive and rapeseed.<\/p>\n

Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine has thrown the trade of sunflower oil into chaos and is squeezing already tight supplies of other vegetable oils used in food, biofuels and personal care products.<\/p>\n

Weather woes across the world\u2019s major producers of edible oils are adding to fears of shortages. Dryness has crimped the size of soybean harvests in South America, the world\u2019s biggest producer, and drought in Canada shrank production of canola, leaving little available supply.<\/p>\n

While limited supply and soaring prices are set to worsen inflation of food items like salad dressing and mayonnaise in wealthy economies like the US, developing nations like India are set to feel the worst impacts. Such countries depend on imports of palm oil as a cheaper alternative to more costly soybean, sunflower and canola oil.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are terribly shocked by this decision of Indonesia,\u201d said Atul Chaturvedi, president of Solvent Extractors\u2019 Association of India, and edible oil trade group. \u201cWe were not expecting a ban like this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Food vs fuel<\/b><\/p>\n

The surge in core food costs is also leading to the biggest debate in a decade over using farmland to grow crops for producing fuel. The American Bakers Association, whose members produce 85% of US baked goods, is warning about empty grocery store shelves.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe desperately need the US Environmental Protection Agency to take the right action to allow soybean oil stocks to shift back into food instead of being diverted to biodiesel production,\u201d said Robb MacKie, the trade group\u2019s president.<\/p>\n

Food-versus-fuel tensions are also flaring in other regions, including Indonesia.<\/p>\n

The latest action by Indonesia is certain to \u201caggravate\u201d food inflation that\u2019s already at a record high, said Tosin Jack, commodity intelligence manager at Mintec in the UK. Tight vegetable oil supplies are already prompting food manufacturers to improvise with their products, including trying to come up with new formulations and switch to substitutes when possible, according to Jack.<\/p>\n

For makers of packaged items like chips, whose ingredient lists often allow flexibility by stating the food can contain multiple vegetable oils, the move by Indonesia takes one more oil off an ever-shrinking list.<\/p>\n

Changing food recipes though can be daunting and \u201cdoes not necessarily produce a product with the same sensory characteristics,\u201d said Jeannie Milewski, executive director for The Association for Dressings & Sauces, an Atlanta-based trade group that represents makers of products that most often rely on soybean oil.<\/p>\n

Soybean oil futures in the US have nearly doubled since the start of 2021, driven in part by higher demand for ingredients to make biofuel. Prices then shot up to the highest on record after Russia\u2019s attack on Ukraine disrupted sunflower oil shipments and set off demand for alternative commodities.<\/p>\n

Canadian canola had already climbed to an all-time high last year as devastating drought shrank crops across North American prairies. Palm oil in Asia has risen about 50% and rapeseed in Europe 55% in the past 12 months.<\/p>\n

A big deal<\/b><\/p>\n

Still, \u201cdespite record prices overall, vegetable oil demand remains high because vegetable oils are an essential part of diets in all countries and particularly in countries like India, Pakistan, Bangladesh,\u201d said John Baize, an independent analyst who also advises the US Soybean Export Council.<\/p>\n

Baize calls Indonesia’s restriction on palm oil exports a \u201cbig deal\u201d but expects it won\u2019t last long. He noted that Indonesia exported 26.87 million metric tons of palm oil in 2021 compared with consuming 15.28 million metric tons domestically.<\/p>\n

For now, Indonesia\u2019s ban intensifies worries about food costs and shortages, with expectations that other countries are likely to make similar moves as the war in Ukraine drags on.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re likely to see a few more,\u201d said Rabobank\u2019s Mera. \u201cThat exacerbates the concerns.\u201d<\/p>\n
