February 02, 2017 (REPORT 5) DRY BUTTERMILK - WEST Western dry buttermilk f.o.b. prices are mixed on the range, but steady on the mostly series. A few spot sales based on specific brands pushed up the top price of the range. Demands from the bakery and confectionary sectors are above current supply. Dry buttermilk production is irregular as balancing plant operators are focusing on clearing heavy condensed skim volumes into dryers. As a result, dry buttermilk inventories continue tightening in the spot market. F.O.B.
