From work to reconnect with China to new export destinations around the world, the global opportunity for U.S. ethanol and DDGS is unlike ever before.
The U.S. exported 209.87 million gallons of ethanol and 919,855 metric tons of distillers grains in February, according to data released by the USDA on April 2. Exports of both products were up when compared to February 2025.
Corn use for fuel ethanol production in January 2026 was down when compared to both the previous month and January 2025, according to the USDA’s latest Grain Crushings and Co-Products Production report.
The USGBC’s 2025 Annual Report is now available. The document features events and programs USGBC staff in its 10 offices around the world organized to deliver wins for U.S. producers of barley, corn, sorghum and their co-products.
The U.S. Grains & BioProducts Council recently developed a set of infographics with statistics about U.S. agricultural exports in marketing year (MY) 2024/2025 and explainers on ethanol storage and infrastructure compatibility.
