Analysts predict that rising economies continue to fuel demand for low-cost oils, and established markets in the US and Europe are showing an increasing trend to use palm as well, according to a report by stock analyst Aaron Levitt in Investopedia, a Forbes Company.

Levitt opines that palm oil “makes for an interesting trend as both food source and fuel supply,” and adds that some palm funds or indices could be good investment vehicles. As more funding finds its way into agriculture and palm specifically, then money for more inputs are sure to follow, including those for crop protection.
