Inpasa (INPA) to Surge China DDGS Exports, Targeting 1.5M Tons by 2026

Brazilian corn ethanol producer Inpasa (INPA) plans to significantly expand exports of dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) to China this year, with contracts for an additional 250,000 tons and potential 2026 shipments of up to 1.5 million tons. The company expects China to account for 40% to 50% of its exports within a short period, including its first shipment scheduled this year. Spain currently leads Europe as the largest buyer, with growing interest from Italy and other countries. China’s opening of import access to Brazilian sorghum amid reduced U.S. exports has created a favorable environment for Inpasa’s DDGS, leveraging its expanding corn ethanol production.
