July 07, 2016 (REPORT 27) WESTERN EUROPE INFORMATION GATHERED 06/27/2016 - 07/08/2016 U.S. DOLLARS PER METRIC TON, FOB PORT WHOLE MILK POWDER (WMP): Whole milk powder prices in the EU increased at each end of the price range this week. Many EU food industry manufacturers are stocked for current needs, but those needing to purchase are finding sellers holding for price increases. The domestic price pressure is limiting the ability to export into global markets. Some buyers are contracting for deliveries in the fourth quarter. WMP production in the EU January-April this year is even with the same period last year, according to Eucolait. 26% BUTTERFAT: 2,275 - 2,500 0930c Eric.Graf@ams.usda.gov 608.557.7005 USDA/AMS/Dairy Market News, Madison, Wisconsin Dairy Market News website: http://www.ams.usda.gov/market-news/dairy Dairy Market News database portal: http://www.marketnews.usda.gov/mnp/da-home
