MUMBAI, Dec 19 (Reuters) - Indian soyoil futures eased on Wednesday on rising supplies and a drop in palm oil prices overseas, while oilseeds rose on good exports demand for oilmeal.
- At 0818 GMT, Malaysian palm oil futures were down 0.94 percent at 2,320 ringgit per tonne, while U.S. soybeans had eased 0.14 percent to $14.64 per bushel.
- India meets more than half of its edible oil requirement through imports, which largely constitute palm oil.
- The January soybean contract on India's National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange was up 0.22 percent at 3,370.5 rupees per 100 kg.
- "The downside in palm oil prices pulled down soyoil. Local fundamentals are supporting. Edible oil demand is likely to stay firm due to the winter season," said Badruddin Khan, associate vice-president of research at Indiabulls Commodities Ltd.
- India's soymeal exports surged more than 10-fold in November from a month ago on fresh supplies and strong demand from France and Japan.
