Brazil's Distillers Grains Quietly Feed China and Cattle

Brazil distillers grains exports are rising as corn ethanol output grows, and China has become a major buyer of DG for livestock feed. Larissa Alvarez, StoneX Senior Market Intelligence Analyst, explains how DG exports to China interact with expanding Brazilian supply. Distillers grains combine energy, protein and digestible fiber, so cattle feed costs in Brazil depend on how DG is priced against corn. New supply from Brazil corn ethanol plants, concentrated in Mato Grosso, has absorbed stronger China DG demand, while producers can rebalance rations with corn and soybean meal when relative prices shift.
