description The prices of petroleum and vegetable oils appear to be moving in tandem, a trend which was not observed before. This study seeks to investigate the long-term relationship between the prices of crude oil and selected vegetable oils.

The study utilized monthly data over the period of January 1983 through March 2008. The results provide strong evidence of a long-run relationship between the two product prices.
