The global palm oil market is projected to grow at a 7.5% CAGR from 2015 to 2022, according to an insightful report by Grand View Research, Inc. Palm oil is desired by consumers due to its beta-carotene content. It is used as one of the prominent cooking oils in Southeast Asia and has a high valuation as a cash crop for farmers in the region. In addition, its use as a transfat substitute has led to the application of palm oil in margarine and other spreads.
The market for palm oil is expected to accrue high demand from 2012 to 2022 (forecast period) due to steady demand from various industries. The utilization of palm oil as a component in biofuels is projected to bode well for the market over the forecast period. Research and development initiatives undertaken by market leaders to create a viable means of production are anticipated to open up new avenues for growth. Increasing consumer demand for bio-based products is expected to drive the market in the forthcoming years. However, rising environmental concerns and deforestation caused by palm oil production may hamper global market growth.

The high adoption rate of biofuels can be seen as an essential step in prevention of global warming by various environmental organizations. Private contractors are offering package deals to countries with an abundance of palm trees to generate good revenue.
