Earlier Report Observations
The market volume for palm-kernel oilcake in Liberia contracted sharply from 4 348 t in 2018 to 2 174 t in 2019. This was followed by a period of stabilization, with the market holding at 2 174 t in 2020. The acquisition of a 50% interest in Liberian Palm Developments Ltd. by Kuala Lumpur Kepong Berhad in May 2020 brought significant foreign investment into the country's palm oil sector, which likely supported production capacity and helped prevent a further immediate decline in oilcake output.
After 2020, the market volume experienced a gradual decline, falling to 1 978 t in 2022 before stabilizing at 1 974 t in 2023. This later period of stagnation coincided with reports of significantly decreased palm kernel exports from Liberia and minimal quantities being imported for local processing, indicating a broader contraction in the upstream supply chain that limited the market for palm-kernel oilcake residues.
