Significantly higher container freight rates and early shipment delays from Asia to Europe are pushing up spot and early Q2 prices for lysine and threonine, despite weak FOB China prices.

Rerouting and freight cost spikes raise landed amino acid costs for feed buyers in Europe, and the price gap versus weak Chinese FOB quotes shows the increase is freight-driven rather than demand-driven.
