This study utilises the Cooley-Prescott time-varying parameter model to conduct a topological analysis on the changing competitiveness of palm oil in the US market. Results show that competitiveness relationships between palm and soybean oils were more pronounced in the post 1987 period - following the commencement of the American Soybean Association (ASA) negative campaign against palm oil. Policy implications based on the findings of the study are suggested.
