KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 30 (Reuters) - Malaysian palm oil futures

rose on Tuesday after three sessions of losses, supported by a

stronger outlook for exports and a weaker ringgit.

Benchmark palm oil futures for November on the

Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange closed up 0.4 percent at

2,526 ringgit ($624) per tonne.

Traded volumes totalled 34,724 lots of 25 tonnes each on

Tuesday, below the 2015 average of 44,600.

"The market is up on strong export expectations," said a

trader from Kuala Lumpur, referring to traders' outlook of

export data from cargo surveyors for the full month of August.

Palm oil shipments from Malaysia, the world's largest

producer after Indonesia, gained 29-31 percent during the Aug.

1-25 period from the previous month, according to Intertek

Testing Services and Societe Generale de Surveillance.

Data for end-August is scheduled to be released on Thursday.

Palm also found support from a weaker ringgit, its currency

of trade. The Malaysian currency fell 0.2 percent against the

dollar to reach 4.0480 in late trade, making palm oil cheaper

for foreign currency holders.

The ringgit earlier climbed to 4.0560 per dollar, its

weakest level in three weeks.

In competing vegetable oils, the Chicago Board of Trade

soybean oil December contract declined 0.5 percent, while

the January soybean oil contract on the Dalian Commodity

Exchange slipped 0.03 percent.
