The largest increase was seen in consumption for biodiesel, which rose 10.97% from 11,447 thousand tons in 2024 to 12,704 thousand tons in 2025.

However, consumption for foods decreased by 3.64% from 10,205,000 tons in 2024 to 9,834,000 tons in 2025.

The increase in export value in 2025 was not just caused by the increase of export volume, but also because of the rise of average CIF Rotterdam price to US$1,221 per ton, as compared to the average price in 2024 at US$1,084 per ton.
