Ethanol stocks fall as production grows but remains below demand

April 15, 2021 |

In Washington, DTN reports Energy Information Administration data shows ethanol stocks continue to shrink as production remains below consumption. Production reached its highest since the COVID-19 pandemic began a year ago with an average production of 890,000 bpd but stocks fell to a 21-week low of 20.518 million barrels, more than 25% lower than the same time last year. Gulf Coast stocks fell, presumably on exports, while Midwest stocks fell, presumably as the fuel moved to the demand centers on the coasts. West Coast and East Coast stocks both grew.
