WHOLE MILK POWDER (WMP):   

Western European whole milk powder prices firmed, remaining above 
Oceania pricing and also reaching the highest level of 2017. Demand 
from the European food industry remains strong as a number of users 
are still securing WMP for short and medium term needs. Exports have 
slowed compared with recent weeks. Higher milk fat prices are drawing 
milk into dairy products other than WMP. The Dairy Market News 
international monthly average price in dollars/metric ton for European WMP 
prices in May, 2017, $3,184, compares with $2,111 one year earlier.
