> DDGS merchandisers reported a stronger market in mid-July 2017 despite a post-WASDE selloff in corn, soybeans and soybean meal. Hot Midwest weather slowed ethanol plant output and produced more off-specification product, tightening supply of spec-compliant DDGS.

- Commodities: [DDGS](https://feedsoft.ai/c/DDGS.md), [Soybean Meal](https://feedsoft.ai/c/SBM.md)

## Why it matters

Tighter spec-compliant DDGS supply and a favorable price ratio versus soybean meal support demand for DDGS in feed rations and export markets. Lower ethanol plant output limits near-term DDGS supply growth.
