A Nebraska CropWatch analysis examines how low corn stocks-to-use and the Russia-Ukraine conflict affect the distillers-to-corn price ratio. It explains that DDGS supply depends on fuel ethanol and corn, and that wet distillers grains are sold within a limited radius while dry DDGS moves longer distances.
Tight corn supplies raise the cost of DDGS production and shift the DDGS-to-corn price ratio, which determines how competitive DDGS is in livestock rations and therefore its demand.
