# Amino acids markets: Container freight rates continue to soar - Food & Agribusiness

> FOB China prices for lysine and threonine stabilised this week after a recent decline. Container freight rates to Europe and the Americas have risen sharply and are expected to stay firm through the summer. Methionine is stabilising, while tryptophan and valine are weak but offset by higher freight.

## Why it matters

Higher freight raises delivered costs for amino acids into Europe and the Americas, so regional offers are firming even though FOB China prices have flattened. Buyers are covering late Q3 and early Q4 volumes ahead of further increases.
