Historically, this year was a relatively modest harvest.\n· CPO Extraction Rate: Remained steady at 21.9%.\n· CPO Sales Volume: A decrease of 5.3% reflecting the decrease in CPO production. Local demand continues to be strong with all CPO production for H1 2025 being sold.\n· CPO Sales Price: Increased by 25.1% to €963 per tonne. International CPO prices remain above historical levels which has fed through to increasing local CPO prices.\n· PKO Sales Price: PKO prices increased 57.7% as increases in international PKO prices began feeding into local prices during H1 2025.\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nH1-2025\n\n\nH1-2024\n\n\nChange\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFresh Fruit Bunch ('FFB') processed (tonnes)\n\n\n96,518\n\n\n105,444\n\n\n-8.5%\n\n\n\n\nCPO Extracti...
