WHOLE MILK POWDER (WMP):  

Whole milk powder pricing in Europe is unchanged, with low levels of 
transactions. Demand in Europe is tepid and manufacturers are aware that 
competing with production from Australia and New Zealand in international 
markets is challenging. Production levels reflect these factors. The 
market is stable with most trading occurring in internal E.U. markets. 
January - October 2015 whole milk powder exports for the EU-28, as 
reported by GTIS, *decreased 3.9% compared to the same period last year.
