Lysine prices in China have stopped falling and are starting to rise, with producers seeking increases, while European prices are stable and US prices for imported lysine are firmer. A major DL-methionine producer has announced an 8-10 week shutdown of a European plant in mid-2025, and another producer will carry out summer maintenance.
