# Some Q4 methionin buying interest and lysine remains firm - Food & Agribusiness

> Methionine markets became more active for both spot and Q4 business, with suppliers holding current price levels though some flexibility is seen for Q4. Lysine hydrochloride and sulphate remain firm in China while other regions take a wait-and-see stance after recent rapid price rises. Vitamin markets are very quiet with no significant buying activity.

## Why it matters

Firm lysine and methionine prices raise the cost of amino acid supplements in feed formulations, which can push up compound feed costs for buyers. Limited Q4 buying interest suggests prices may soften if demand does not build.
