# Amino acids markets: Lysine firmer - Threonine granular tight in the USA - Food & Agribusiness

> Lysine prices are firming in most regions, with US buyers buffering ahead of expected import duties from the Trump administration and some local US lysine production reportedly being terminated. Threonine granular is very tight in the USA with prices rising, while methionine remains weak and China's lysine demand is good with suppliers raising prices.
