Pongamia Feedstock Australia — Oil, Seed & Cake From One Source
Beyond oil alone, the Pongamia tree yields seed, oil and cake that Australian buyers across biofuel, industrial and agricultural sectors can use. Ranjit Oil Mills India supplies the full Pongamia feedstock range from one Maharashtra operation.
Pongamia Feedstock Australia covers three linked products — Pongamia oil, seed and cake — all supplied by Ranjit Oil Mills India from a single farmer-sourced plantation network in Maharashtra, serving biofuel, SAF and agricultural buyers.
One tree, three feedstock products
Understanding the full Pongamia feedstock range
Most conversations about Pongamia feedstock focus on the oil alone, but pressing Pongamia seed also produces a solid residue known as Pongamia cake, and buyers who don't need pressed oil at all sometimes prefer to import raw seed and press it themselves. A genuine Pongamia Feedstock Australia supplier needs to be able to speak to all three of these products, because different Australian buyers are entering the category at different points.
Ranjit Oil Mills India supplies all three: crude and refined Pongamia oil for biofuel, SAF and industrial buyers; Pongamia cake as a byproduct feedstock with agricultural and biopesticide applications; and raw Pongamia seed for buyers who operate their own crushing capacity. All three come from the same Maharashtra farmer plantation network and the same Masur mill.
For an Australian buyer still deciding which form of Pongamia feedstock fits their operation, being able to source oil, seed or cake from a single supplier avoids having to negotiate separate relationships for what is ultimately one crop.

How each Pongamia product is prepared
From seed collection to three distinct feedstock products
One collection process branches into three exportable products.
Seed Collection
Pongamia seed is collected from our farmer plantation network across Maharashtra.
Seed Grading
Seed intended for direct export is graded for moisture and quality.
Oil Pressing
Seed destined for oil is mechanically pressed at our Masur mill.
Cake Separation
Pressing produces Pongamia cake as a co-product, collected separately.
Quality Checks
Oil, seed and cake batches are each checked against relevant quality parameters.
Export Packing
Products are packed as bulk oil, bagged seed or bagged cake, based on buyer needs.
Matching product form to buyer needs
Which Pongamia feedstock form suits which Australian buyer
SAF refiners and renewable diesel producers are typically looking for pressed oil that already meets a fuel-grade specification, since they are not set up to crush seed themselves. Buyers in this category are usually best served by our oil supply, discussed in more detail on our Pongamia oil pages.
Buyers with their own crushing capacity, or those exploring Pongamia as an agricultural input rather than a fuel feedstock, are often better served by raw seed or cake. Pongamia cake in particular has a growing profile as an organic soil amendment and biopesticide input, which is a separate but complementary market to the fuel-feedstock story built around Pongamia oil.
- Pressed oil suits SAF and renewable diesel buyers without crushing capacity
- Raw seed suits buyers running their own crushing operations
- Pongamia cake serves agricultural and biopesticide applications
- All three products trace back to the same Maharashtra farmer network
