Why FUSHKOV GCG
About the product
Lysine is an aliphatic amino acid that humans and animals cannot synthesise, which makes it an essential amino acid. It is a building block of proteins, plays an important role in the absorption of a number of substances and elements, and regulates vital processes in the body.
Feed lysine is one of the most widely used amino acids on the world feed market, and bulk feed lysine is traded internationally in standard forms. The main forms are lysine monohydrochloride (HCl), with 98.5–99% lysine, and lysine sulphate, with 60–70% lysine.
Applications
Synthetic lysine is used to fortify feed and food products. Adding it to the diet of livestock and poultry can increase weight gain, milk yield and egg production.
Other products in our animal feed section include soybean meal, fishmeal and corn gluten meal.
Quality specifications (reference)
| Parameter | Value |

Reference only: lysine forms and active-substance content per manufacturers' data. Final specification is fixed in the contract.
Besides lysine content, a feed lysine specification usually states moisture, particle size and the safety parameters required by the importing country. In the Eurasian Economic Union, goods of this subheading imported for use in feed are subject to veterinary control.
Forms and applications
World market
Industrial lysine is produced by microbial fermentation of sugar-based feedstocks. China is the largest producer of feed lysine: according to the analytics firm CCM, it accounted for about 76% of global output in 2023.
For a buyer of bulk feed lysine, supply from several countries — China, the USA, Korea and Indonesia — reduces dependence on a single market and on shifts in export policy.
Storage and transport
Wholesale feed lysine is kept in its sealed factory packaging in dry, cool premises, away from direct sunlight and moisture: the product is hygroscopic and cakes when damp. It travels in bags or big bags, in containers or covered vehicles.
How a deal works
Below is the typical sequence of an international commodity trade. Specific terms are always set by the contract between the parties.
Feed products and additives normally require a veterinary certificate or another veterinary control document, as required by the importing country.
Delivery terms: Incoterms 2020 at a glance
The Incoterms rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) allocate costs, risks and delivery obligations between seller and buyer. The current edition, Incoterms 2020, contains 11 rules; the edition that applies is named in the contract. The rules most used in commodity trade are:
- FCA (Free Carrier): the seller hands the goods to the buyer's carrier at the agreed place;
- FOB (Free On Board): the seller is responsible for the goods until they are loaded on board the vessel at the port of shipment; further costs and risks pass to the buyer;
- CFR (Cost and Freight): the seller pays freight to the port of destination, but risk passes to the buyer once the goods are on board;
- CIF (Cost, Insurance and Freight): as CFR, but the seller also insures the cargo for the buyer's benefit;
- DAP (Delivered at Place): the seller delivers the goods to the agreed destination, ready for unloading; the buyer handles import clearance.
FOB, CFR and CIF apply to sea and inland waterway transport; FCA and DAP to any mode of transport. The basis for each shipment is agreed in the contract.
