VIDEO: Exclusive, Ketum Apkasindo Wrestling Manurung In The Future The Use Of CPO As Energy Will Be More Massive

JAKARTA - In the future, the use of CPO, said the General Chairperson of the Indonesian Palm Oil Farmers Association (Apkasindo), Dr. Ir. Wrestling Manurung, MP., will be even more massive. If in the past most CPOs were for consumption, now and later this condition would turn around. Although as the largest CPO producer in the world, Indonesia is also the largest CPO consumer in the world. Of the 45.58 million tons of CPO production is 40 percent used for domestic consumers. So about 20jt tons per year. In the future, with the use of CPOs as biodiesel, consumption of CPOs will be even greater. This means that domestic absorption will continue to grow. Indonesia uses CPOs for energy, western countries don't like us to use CPOs for energy. There is competition between human needs (migors) and for energy. The impact of CPO prices will continue to increase. That's why block oil (used cooking oil oil) is also sought to be used as new and renewable energy," he said. This is the full excerpt.
