   MINNEAPOLIS (DTN) -- The DTN price for domestic distillers dried grains 
(DDG) from 33 locations reporting for the week ended April 25 was down $6 on 
average versus one week ago at $170 per ton. DDG prices were pushed much lower 
than in recent weeks from most of the prices collected, despite a slowdown in 
production. Cheaper soybean meal prices added pressure but strength in the corn 
market didn't seem to matter. The DTN National Average Corn Index was up 16 
cents versus one week ago.

   The Energy Information Administration on Wednesday reported overall ethanol 
production in the United States averaged 954,000 bpd in the week ended April 
19, the Energy Information Administration reports, down 29,000 bpd week-on-week 
and 13,000 bpd, or 1.4% lower than in the same week last year. Four-week 
average output at 1.017 million bpd was 29,000 bpd above the same four weeks 
last year. Midwest ethanol production averaged 903,000 bpd, down 21,000 bpd 
week-on-week and 13,000 bpd, or 1.4% lower than in the same week last year. 
Four-week average output at 965,000 bpd was 26,000 bpd above the same four 
weeks last year.

   Based on the average of prices collected by DTN, the value of DDG relative 
to corn for the week ended April 25 was 1.08%. The value of DDG relative to 
soybean meal was 49.43 and the cost per unit of protein for DDG was $6.30 
compared to the cost per unit of protein for soybean meal at $7.24.
