Interview: China to keep ethanol program steady, national blend rate seen at 4%: US Grains Council

The US Grains Council said China is expected to keep its ethanol program steady, with a national blend rate seen reaching about 4 percent long term, despite the unofficial suspension of its E10 mandate earlier this year. The Council also said Vietnam, Indonesia and Thailand will remain top buyers of US DDGS, and that a US ethanol output dip will not affect DDGS exports to Southeast Asia.
