Today Stock Analyst Discusses Subsidies for Biodiesel. Besides, the subsidy for biodiesel program has continued to soar from Rp 2,900/liter in the beginning of this year to Rp 5,500/liter in May. As a result, the Management Agency for Palm Oil Plantation Fund (BPDPKS) has to prepare alternative strategies for searching additional fund if there is any deficit.
In the meantime, the palm oil fund that has been collected is around Rp 15.87 trillion (including the palm oil fund collection projection this year Rp 9.5 trillion) which is estimated to only be enough for subsidizing the biodiesel for 8-10 months.
It is estimated that the decline of crude oil price by US$ 1 per barrel can increase the additional need for biodiesel subsidy fund by around Rp 350 billion. In the meantime, the increase of crude palm oil (CPO) by US$ 1/ton requires an additional fund of around Rp 38 billion.
Up to now, the oil price is in the increasing trend but the crude palm oil price is also in the increasing trend so it is feared that the subsidy will continue to soar.
“The issuer that will be affected the most by the implementation of the biodiesel program is AKRA because the issuer is one of the main vendors for subsidized fuel,” HP Analytics wrote in its research that was received today, Wednesday (4/5/2016).

CPO reimposed export charge in May 2016. `The current CPO reference price is above the threshold for the first time since October 2014 that is at the level of US$750. Hence the government imposes the CPO Export Tax of US$3/MT for the period of May 2016,` Acting Director General of Foreign Trade at the Trade Ministry, Karyanto Suprih, said in a press release received on Sunday. The CPO price has increased by US$71.78 or 10.52 percent from April 2016 which was at 682.32 per MT. The stipulation is stated in the Trade Minister Regulation Number 29/MDAG/PER/4/2016 on the Stipulation of Export Reference Price (HPE) on Agricultural and Forestry Products Subject to Export Tax. `HPE and reference price for the period of May 2016 is stipulated after the development of the commodity price, both nationally and internationally,` Karyanto said. Karyanto explained that the increase in the current CPO reference price is due to the strengthening international price for the commodity. The CPO Export Tax for May 2016 is stated in Column 2, attachment of PMK 136 Year 2015, at US$3/MT, has shifted 1 column from the period of April 2016 of US$0/MT.  Meanwhile, the reference price for cocoa beans in May 2016 has weakened by US$41.91 or 1.4 percent that is from US$2,992.02/MT to US$2,950.11/MT, resulting in the establishment of HPE for cocoa beans that also experienced decline of US$41 or 1.5 percent from US$2,692/MT in the period of April to US$2,651/MT. The decline in reference price and HPE for cocoa beans was caused by decreasing international price of the commodity. However, the Export Tax for cocoa beans remains unchanged from the previous period, which is at 10 percent and stated in Column 3, attachment II PMK 75 Year 2012. No changes occurred in HPE and Export Tax for timber and leather products from the previous period.

Coconut oil and granulated sugar prices soar in Ternate

Coconut oil and granulated sugar prices soar in Ternate. `Ternate city government should stabilize the price of these basic necessities which keep on soaring,` said a trader, Rahmat, in Ternate, Sunday. Even in some traditional markets in the city of Ternate as in Bastiong Inpres, the price of granulated sugar which previously Rp14,000/Kg rose to Rp16,000/Kg. Meanwhile, coconut oil Rp14,000/Kg soars to Rp18,000/Kg. The traders argue that the soaring price of the two basic necessities is because the distributors increased the price followed by the retailers to gain some profit Rahmat admitted he had to sell a little bit more expensive to prevent losses particularly when there is a soaring price of the commodities from the distributors.  We took the commodity from the distributors at the price of bulk coconut oil in a 25-liter jerrycan, currently Rp235,000. However last week the price was just Rp230,000/jerrycan. Meanwhile, the price of 50 Kg granulated sugar previously Rp655,000, currently rose to Rp665,000. Head of the Industry and Trade Agency Maluku Utara, Asrul Gailea, said the high price of goods in this area has nothing to do with the increase or decrease of fuel prices. `The supply is relatively limited and ahead of the fasting month of Ramadhan so the price of basic necessities soars,` he remarked Also, speculations from the middle man caused significant increase in the price of goods taking advantage of the condition that Maluku Utara is an archipelago using ships to transport goods from the production center.

Ijen coffee enters the New Zealand market. A press release from the Indonesian Embassy in Wellington received by Antara in Jakarta on Friday (28/4) stated that the event was on Thursday (28/4) in Wellington, a city with the most coffee shops in the world.  `The presence of Ijen Coffee enriches the variation of coffee served in coffee shops in Wellington, a city known as the coffee capital,` said Indonesian Ambassador to New Zealand, Jose Tavares. Coffee culture in New Zealand is known for its high standards in selecting coffee. Coffee with certain characteristics is a product always sought after by coffee producers here.  `Indonesia is very fortunate because it has the potential to produce a variety of specialty coffee from Aceh to Papua,` said Tavares. Some entrepreneurs from various coffee companies in Wellington were present to hear the presentation on Java Arabica Ijen coffee delivered by Adnan Assegaf from Djava Kopi. Entrepreneurs working in the coffee business sector, from buyers to cafe owners also had the opportunity to test Ijen coffee flavor in the coffee cupping session. A documentary film on the beauty of the Ijen Crater was also shown at the event. It is hoped that the coffee promotion activity can increase Indonesia's exports to New Zealand. In 2015, Indonesia's coffee exports to New Zealand averaged 60 tons per month with a value of around NZ$350,000. The increasing need for coffee provides an opportunity to increase Indonesia's coffee exports to New Zealand.
