Weekly Review
The market again was fairly flat last week. Yellow grease trading was down by 6/100th of a cent compared to the prior week’s average. Trading into the Gulf was lower by a full penny, which was the main driver of the lower average price. Sources have commented that big biomass diesel in that region have pushed price down.
Poultry fat and distillers corn oil saw the biggest changes, up just over a quarter of a cent and just under a half cent, respectively.
Poultry fat continues to see higher prices related to tight supplies in the market. Corn oil demand has picked up in the all-veg sector and supplies are tighter as a number of ethanol plants are undergoing seasonal maintenance.
