Amino acid prices held steady over the week of November 5-12, with quotes unchanged for several days. Industry operating rates fell 3 points to 63%, with lysine utilization dropping from 61% to 56% as some producers scheduled winter maintenance or cuts.
Lower lysine output and cautious feed buying keep amino acid prices stable in the near term. Soymeal and corn cost moves give only modest support, so feed buyers should expect little price relief or pressure.
