MD DA530 Dry Whey - Central                                      

MADISON, WI.  March 24, 2016 (REPORT 12)                         

DRY WHEY - CENTRAL                                               

Central dry whey prices are unchanged in a quiet market. Processors report 
demand is satisfactory, but definitely not stellar. Regular customers 
continue to consider offers and look at Q2 agreements, but are slow to 
respond unless the price is right. End users are content with their 
inventories and are willing to burn through their stocks before making 
additional purchases. Manufacturers' inventories are mixed. A few 
processors say their inventories are a little tighter due to getting 
current and future agreements secured, while other processors say 
inventories are heavy and building. Animal feed dry whey prices are steady 
to higher, with the top end of the price range moving up a penny. End users 
are finding supplies readily available. 

F.O.B. CENTRAL:    .1800 - .2850   MOSTLY:    .2200 - .2650      
F.O.B. CENTRAL: ANIMAL FEED MILK REPLACER:    .1250 - .2250
