The production of vegetable oil from 2003 through 2007 is projected to be 95,624,000 tons, where the consumption is 118,061,000 tons, so a shortfall in production of 22,437,000 tons is expected. At present, Indonesia and Malaysia are the principal palm oil producers in the world, with 80% of production.
