Indian grain distillers have asked the government to raise the procurement price for corn-based ethanol by about 9% to 75 per liter. They cite rising feedstock and financing costs threatening production viability as grain plants are asked to supply more of the blending program.
Higher ethanol procurement prices would support corn demand from distilleries and could tighten Indian maize supply for feed use, while also shifting DDGS output dynamics.
