MD DA340 Dry Buttermilk  - West                             

MADISON, WI.  February 26, 2015 (REPORT 8)                  

DRY BUTTERMILK - WEST                                       
                                                            
Prices for Western dry buttermilk are higher on a seemingly firmer market. 
Buyers are trying to work out whether support is truly emerging for dry 
buttermilk or if sellers are holding back offers to the market to tighten 
supply. In addition, the underlying support of the Grade A low heat nonfat 
dry milk market is uncertain as NDM prices have followed changing 
directions in the last 7 days of trading at the CME Group. Dry buttermilk 
production is ongoing at most facilities as bulk and print butter churning 
continues ahead of the spring holidays. Dry buttermilk stocks on hand are 
building steadily. 

F.O.B. WEST: .8850 - 1.0100   MOSTLY:  .8950 - .9225
