In week 46 of 2026 (November 6-12), 37 Chinese amino acid plants produced a combined 81,600 tonnes, with a 63% operating rate, flat week on week. Lysine output was 55,800 tonnes at a 56% rate, threonine 17,600 tonnes at 83%, tryptophan 800 tonnes at 84%, and methionine 7,400 tonnes at 87%.
The 22 corn-based plants processed 184,800 tonnes, also flat week on week.
Steady run rates mean no new supply shock in Chinese lysine and methionine, so feed amino acid prices are likely to stay range-bound. Low lysine utilisation points to ample availability for feed compounders.
