U.S. DDGS prices rose $7/MT as buyers sought fall supply and ethanol run rates stayed slow, despite weaker soymeal futures. Kansas City soymeal fell $33/MT to two-month lows, and Gulf barge CIF NOLA values dropped $8-10/MT after Hurricane Ida.
Hurricane-related Gulf disruption and slow ethanol output tightened DDGS supply, while soymeal weakness narrowed the DDGS-to-soymeal ratio. Feed buyers should expect continued Gulf-driven volatility.
