Mizuho analyst Jeremy lowered his near-term estimates across the protein space to reflect higher feed costs. Progress reports and persistent flooding in the Midwest suggest "unrecoverable gaps" to projected harvest acreage and a tighter supply in the U.S., Scott tells investors in a research note. Further, a "substantial drop" in soy demand from China and corn demand from other African Swine Fever-impacted regions should help offset the U.S. supply shortfall, adds the analyst. Scott reduced his estimates to reflect the risk of feed cost inflation over the next twelve months, but maintains Buy ratings on Tyson Foods (TSN), Pilgrim's Pride (PPC) and Sanderson Farms (SAFM).
