The Philippines is the largest market for U.S. soybean meal (SBM) and the world’s largest coconut oil (CNO) exporter. SBM imports are forecast to reach 2.5 MMT in MY 16/17, driven by the continued consolidation and growing sophistication of the domestic feed-consuming industries, alongside significant industry investment in feed grain distribution infrastructure. From 890,000 MT in MY 14/15, CNO exports are forecast down 16 percent to 750,000 MT in MY 15/16 due to lingering effects of dry conditions brought about by the EL Nino weather disturbance, as well as typhoon-related damages in CY 2015. CNO exports are expected to modestly recover in MY 16/17 as a return to more “normal” weather conditions is expected.
