# Amino Acid · Vitamin · Mineral Element Weekly Report (10/28–11/04)

> Feed additive prices weakened across most categories in the week of 28 October to 4 November. Oil costs fell sharply, sulfur and ammonia declined, and Inner Mongolia's 200,000-tonne methionine plant entered trial production. Live hog futures hit a record low, and vitamin E prices slipped further.
