On Tuesday (29), Brazil's Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock, in collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, announced that Algeria has opened its market to imports of dried distillers grains (DDG). DDG, a byproduct of corn ethanol production, is a valuable feed ingredient due to its high fat, fiber, and protein content, which typically stands at around 30%.
This product is an attractive alternative to soybean and corn meal in the diets of cattle and poultry. Brazil is among the world's leading producers of DDG. The announcement follows a similar move by Morocco in 2024, which also opened its market to DDG imports from Brazil. Additionally, the ministries confirmed that other markets have been opened for products from Antigua and Barbuda, China, Chile, and Paraguay.
