DTN Average Weekly DDG Price Pushes Lower Again
OMAHA (DTN) -- The DTN average price for domestic distillers dried grains (DDG) from 34 locations reporting for the week ended June 2 was $250 per ton, down $9 on average versus one week ago. Once again, a rise in plant production last week and losses in the cash corn market pressured DDG prices. The DTN National Corn Index was 29 cents lower on June 2 versus one week ago.
The Energy Information Administration report Wednesday showed nationally ethanol plant production increased 47,000 barrels per day (bpd) or 4.6% to 1.071 million bpd -- 37,000 bpd or 3.6% above the year-ago output rate.
