According to Defris, the 9-year-old age group had the most price rise, totaling IDR 3.14/Kg, or a 0.09 percent increase over the previous period.

“So the purchase price of farmers' fresh fruit bunches for the next one week period will increase to IDR 3,465.47/Kg with a shell price of IDR 22.55/Kg,” he said.

In this period, the K index used is the K index for the next 1 month, namely 93.22 percent. The selling price of crude palm oil this week rose by IDR 53.16 and kernel this week fell by IDR 141.77 from last week.

“There are various palm oil plants that do not generate revenue. The team's average pricing for crude palm oil and kernels is based on Minister of Agriculture Regulation number 01 of 2018, Article 8. If it is subject to validation 2, the average KPBN price is applied,” he said.

The average price of PT Kharisma Marketing Bersama Nusantara crude palm oil for this period is IDR 13,922.75 and the KPBN kernel price for this period is IDR 11,210.00.
