DDGS Dent in Soybean Khali Market! Find out what CLFMA says about growing use in animals
After uncovering oil from oilseed crops, large amounts of sales are used in the form of large amounts of sales in animal craft and poultry feeds (eg soybean cake, mustard cake, rice cake, etc.). But in recent months, it has reduced the use of livestock and poultry feeds, while distillers have increased the use of dry grain solutions (DDG). In the simplest language, animals are being treated for soluble substances to dry grains emanating from the distilleries. But, Divya Kumar Gulati, chairman of the Compound Live Stock Feed Manufacturers Association (CLFMA of India), said the use of Soybean Khali DDGA increases
There is no threat to the industry.
What are DDGS after all?
In fact, during the creation of ethanol, when grains such as maize and rice are processed in plants, DDGs fall into it, that is, the process of making ethanol is complete, but along with ethanol, DDGS is also available. Now in this process, those who remain like corn and rice are used as a livestock. But its use has been growing for months. According to experts, DDGS has a better choice for animals in terms of protein and energy and the price is even cheaper than Khali, so it is expensive.
DDGs growing with ethanol production
The government is constantly working to increase the production of ethanol and has also increased the tendency to make ethanol with grains. In such a situation, the production of DDGs is also growing, which is becoming a challenge for the soybean Khali business. According to the ‘Businessline’ report, Divya Kumar Gulati said the DDGs could not completely replace Soyabin Khali. For reasons for nutrition, it is not possible to completely change it.
Although its use is increased, it affects only 10 to 15 percent of the soybean cake business. However, in this, the quality of DDGs is a big factor. India’s poultry industry is growing at 8 to 10 percent annually, but soybean cake is not increasing. Therefore, there is no threat to the soybean khali industry from DDGs.
Sopa says this when the Khali market declines
At the same time, the Soybean Processors Association of India (SOPA) has issued a statement, which has reduced the livestock segment soybean cake in the first six months of October 2024-25 oil, which fell to more than 7 percent. Between October and March in the current season, the feed sector lifted 32.50 lakh tonnes of soybean khali, which was 35 million tonnes in the same period last season. Sopa says that the DDGs are a priority as livestock behind the decline in demand, as it is cheaper from Khali for livestock breeders.
