AHDB analysis links strong US bioethanol demand to firm Chicago maize prices, with about 36% of US maize used for ethanol over the past two seasons. US weekly ethanol output reached 1,107K b/d in the week ending October 29, near the December 2017 record, and Chicago December maize futures rose $26 in October.
Robust ethanol-driven corn demand supports Chicago and UK feed grain prices, while strong crude and CO2 values reinforce margins.
