Abstract
The Colombian Association of the Edible Fats and Oils Industry (Asocoingra) is the trade association that represents the food industries in the sector, that have been traditional clients of the palm growers due to their main prime material being nationally sourced crude palm oil. Asocoingra is worried about the supply and price of palm oil for the food industry, bearing in mind the predictable boom in biofuel plants in Colombia and government policy on the issue. Thus, it believes it is necessary to find common ground that respects the overall interests of all industries or destinations of the raw material that the palm growers produce and puts forward proposals in this respect. La Asociación Colombiana de la Industria de Grasas y Aceites Comestibles (Asocoingra) es el gremio representante de los industriales de alimentos del sector, que han sido clientes tradicionales de los palmicultores, debido a que su principal materia prima es el aceite crudo de palma de origen nacional. Asocoingra tiene una preocupación frente al tema de la oferta y el precio del aceite de palma para la industria comestible, tomando en cuenta el boom previsible de las plantas de biocombustibles en Colombia y las políticas gubernamentales al respecto. En ese sentido, considera que es necesario encontrar un punto de convergencia que respete los intereses conjuntos de todas las industrias o destinos del insumo que hoy producen los palmicultores, y hace planteamientos para ello.
