DRY WHEY - CENTRAL  

Central whey prices were steady to lower in what continues to be a 
very weak market. Whey production continues to be steady as the cheese 
manufacturers report strong production. Most buyers are reporting 
current needs are met and so they are waiting for lower prices. Some 
sellers are doing what they can to sell high inventory levels, 
including selling at lower pricing levels. Some manufacturers are 
offering discounts for condensed whey, as dryer time is being used to 
manufacture other products. Animal feed whey prices were steady. Some 
manufacturers report profit margins are acceptable in the animal feed 
market.
