US ethanol exports totaled 171.6 million gallons in April, with year-to-date shipments up 13% from 2025. DDGS exports reached 1.02 million metric tons in April, led by Mexico, Indonesia, South Korea, Vietnam and Turkey.
Year-to-date DDGS exports are up 12% from last year.
Strong DDGS export flows absorb domestic supply and support co-product values, while steady ethanol exports support corn demand. Continued export strength would limit downside in DDGS and corn prices.
