# Soybean oil loses share of the US biofuel feedstock mix

> Soybean oil's share of US biofuel feedstocks fell to 37% in April as high prices pushed producers toward corn oil, tallow and used cooking oil. Biofuel output is running below the mandate-implied capacity, with biodiesel at 77% and renewable diesel at 78% in May. Palm oil also declined on rising Malaysian stocks.
