## Why it matters

DDGS became roughly $0.98 per protein unit cheaper than soybean meal, which should pull more of the coproduct into domestic feed rations and support DDGS prices. Firm Savannah and Southeast Asia container prices point to steady export demand, though reluctant international buyers limit upside.
