Animal Fats

Market Activity

BFT Packer was offered at $0.2900 Chicago, four cars, and saw no interest. YG traded steady out of the Illinois market again today, $0.2200 – $0.2250, but sources have reported that the bids coming from biodiesel buyers would put values in the $0.2100 and under range. Sellers thus far have seen enough demand from the feed sector to avoid dropping that low. Values out of the California market were reported steady, but sources continue to report a difficult market.
