MD DA340 Dry Buttermilk  - West                             

MADISON, WI.  September 28, 2017 (REPORT 39)                

DRY BUTTERMILK - WEST 

In the West, f.o.b prices for dry buttermilk are up at the top 
of the range, but steady on the mostly price series. Sales 
continue to be low to moderate. Dry buttermilk production is 
stable, in line with butter output. As ice cream makers reduce 
their condensed buttermilk intakes, more goes to the dryers. 
Bakers are starting to increase their requests for dry 
buttermilk due to the baking season getting close. Dry 
buttermilk stocks are tight. Overall, the market tone is stable. 
                                      
F.O.B. WEST: .8300 - .9550   MOSTLY:  .8900 - .9200
