SKIM MILK POWDER (SMP): 
With more milk available in the Southern Cone of South America, 
most plant managers are focusing drying schedules on WMP 
production. Thus, SMP processing has been limited, while 
inventories are decreasing. Therefore, skim milk powder (SMP) 
f.o.b. export prices are slightly higher in the region. At this 
point, sales activity is mostly driven by contractual needs.

At the GDT Event 190 on June 20, skim milk powder (SMP) prices 
across all contract periods averaged $2,218 per metric ton, up 
1.4% from the last event.

1.25% BUTTERFAT:                         2,750- 3,050
