SWEET WHEY POWDER:   

Whey prices have firmed in Western Europe. In part this reflects 
cheese production that is below what manufacturers would like to 
achieve. With milk production declining, buyers do not expect much 
supply relief in coming months. This is helping to strengthen markets 
due to increased demand, especially for feed grade whey.
