lower versus one week ago.

   MINNEAPOLIS (DTN) -- The DTN spot price for domestic distillers dried grains 
(DDG) from 33 locations reporting for the week ended July 10 was $145 per ton 
on average, $3 lower versus one week ago.

   DDG prices were mixed for the week, but lower on average. The lower cash 
corn and soybean meal prices added pressure to the DDG prices, with some DDG 
prices showing deep discounts versus last week. DTN's National Average Corn 
Index is down 18 cents versus one week ago.

   Based on the average of prices collected by DTN, the value of DDG relative 
to corn for the week ended July 10 was .997%. The value of DDG relative to 
soybean meal was 54.00% and the cost per unit of protein for DDG was $5.37 
compared to the cost per unit of protein for soybean meal at $5.65. (Table is 
still using July futures.)

   U.S. Grains Council, in its weekly distillers dried grains with solubles 
(DDGS) July export market prices report, showed as of July 10, CIF NOLA barge 
price was down $1 at $210 metric ton (mt); FOB vessel Gulf price was down $2 at 
$226 mt; rail delivered PNW was down $4 at $239; and rail delivered to 
California was down $4 at $229 mt.

   The Energy Information Administration reported Wednesday for the week ending 
July 3, overall ethanol production in the United States averaged 1.085 million 
bpd, up 9,000 bpd week-on-week and 21,000 bpd, or 1.9% lower than in the same 
week last year. The four-week average output at 1.088 million bpd was 21,000 
bpd above the same four weeks last year. Midwest ethanol production averaged 
1.03 million bpd, up 14,000 bpd week-on-week and 16,000 bpd, or 1.6% lower than 
in the same week last year. The four-week average output at 1.03 million bpd 
was 19,000 bpd above the same four weeks last year.
