MD DA350 Dry Buttermilk (Central and East)                  

MADISON, WI.  May 14, 2015 (REPORT 19)                      

DRY BUTTERMILK - CENTRAL AND EAST                           
                                                            
CENTRAL: Central buttermilk prices were steady to higher this week. 
Production levels are mixed as some manufacturers are drying other 
products and offering a discount for condensed. Spot sales are lower 
this week. Supplies are mixed, with most manufacturers stating they 
have available product

EAST:  Eastern dry buttermilk prices moved higher at the top of the 
price range, reflecting plant specific purchases.  The market overall 
has a weak undertone.  Most potential buyers are comfortable with 
current holdings and are not feeling pressured to increase holdings, 
due in part to readily available seller inventories.

F.O.B. CENTRAL/EAST:    .8000 - 1.0500
