> The US benchmark retail diesel price fell 1.4 cents to $3.801 a gallon, its 19th decline in 21 weeks. ULSD futures rose to a $2.4388 settlement on Monday, lifted partly by a weekend upheaval in Russia, though Reuters sources reported no supply interruptions.

## Why it matters

Diesel is a key freight cost for feed delivery, and retail declines lower surcharges, though firmer futures signal the downtrend may be stalling. Muted reaction to Russian turmoil suggests limited near-term price premium.
