The World’s Growing Appetite for Palm Oil



This article is published in collaboration with Statista

by Katharina Buchholz


Highly criticized for its harmful impact on the environment, particularly by causing deforestation in the tropics and reducing biodiversity, palm oil remains the most consumed vegetable oil in the world and global appetite for it continues to grow. Nearly 30 million hectares were devoted to palm oil production worldwide in 2020, about ten times the size of Belgium.


According to the latest data from the United States Department of Agriculture, global annual palm oil production stood at 73 million metric tons in the fiscal year of 2019/20. The number is set to increase further to 77 million tons in the fiscal year of 2020/21, almost double the 2007/08 figure.


Palm oil is predominately used in foods like chocolate and ice cream, but also bread or potato chips. More than 65 percent of palm oil is used in foods. At the same time, industrial uses, including the production of bio fuels and cosmetics, is constantly expanding and now accounts for 31 percent of total consumption (compared to 21 percent in FY2007/08).
