RTRS:VEGOILS-Palm oil bounces on U.S. soy crop concerns
 
* Prices rebound from two-week low hit on Tuesday
* Markets looking out for production, export trend

(Adds details, comments)
By Niluksi Koswanage
KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 7 (Reuters) - Malaysian palm oil futures
bounced on Wednesday as traders bet on demand shifting to the
tropical oil as U.S. soybean crop conditions deteriorate and
tighten soyoil supplies.
Traders said the market was oversold the previous day on
concerns about the worsening euro zone debt crisis that could
stall global economic growth. Palm oil has lost 20 percent so
far this year on debt crisis and market volatility.
"The pronounced declines yesterday was just a one day
affair. Soyoil markets are pushing palm oil higher as its ample
stocks are a contrast to tighter soyoil supply," said a trader
with a foreign commodities brokerage.
By midday, benchmark November palm oil FCPOc3 on the Bursa
Malaysia Derivatives Exchange rose 1.2 percent to 3,020 ringgit
($1,013) per tonne. The previous day, the contract fell to 2,978
ringgit -- a level unseen since Aug. 26.
Exchange volumes stood at 4,072 lots at 25 tonnes each
versus the usual 12,500 lots with trading interest muted after
last week's long holidays.
Reuters technical analyst Wang Tao said palm oil is expected
to hover around 3,000 ringgit per tonne for one trading session
before falling to a bearish target at 2,887 ringgit.
Palm oil exports for August were above the 1.6 million tonne
mark, which could cut into ample stocks as production faltered
last month with estate workers taking leave for the Muslim Eid
festival.
September exports are expected to slip as importers like
India and China wait for prices to come under pressure before
committing to purchases, traders said.
Brent crude rose above $113 a barrel for the second
consecutive day on Wednesday on expectations of lower U.S. crude
stockpiles after a storm disrupted production in the Gulf of
Mexico.
Vegetable oil markets gained after the U.S. Department of
Agriculture's weekly crop progress report that showed just 56
percent of the soybean crop was rated good to excellent, down
from 64 percent a year ago.
U.S. soyoil for October delivery rose 0.6 percent in
Asian trade. The most active May 2012 soy oil on China's
Dalian Commodity Exchange gained 0.8 percent.
