VIEW PROFILE
With the growing population and improvement in living standard in almost every corner of the world, the demand of oils & fats has witnessed substantial increase in most countries year-to-year. Nevertheless, the requirement of this basic necessity in almost all countries with a few exceptional is unable to be met internally. This resulted in most countries being the net importers of oils & fats. As of last year (2010), only 11 countries were able to feed its population with domestically produced oils & fats. Among these, countries such as Malaysia and Indonesia, and Argentina are major exporters with others slowly seeing their export volume dwindled due to increase demand from new sectors with biodiesel being the responsible for the major jump in consumption. In this paper, we will be assessing which are the net exporters that will soon become a net importing country and how demand from these countries could be satisfied. Most importantly, this paper aimed to highlight the important role of the major net exporters and the type of oils produced in satisfying the global demand of oils & fats.
