Amino acid prices diverged in late April 2026: DL-methionine kept surging on supply chain disruptions and limited availability, with Q2 contracted and much of Q3 open. Lysine prices levelled off and showed first signs of decline as demand weakened and buyers were already contracted through Q2 and much of Q3.
Methionine is a key poultry and swine feed amino acid, so rising prices raise least-cost feed formulation costs for animal-feed buyers. Softening lysine offers modest relief, though tight contract coverage limits near-term price moves.
