MD DA530 Dry Whey - Central                                      

MADISON, WI.  April 14, 2016 (REPORT 15)                         

DRY WHEY - CENTRAL                                                                                                              

The whey market continues to have a weak undertone in the Central region. 
Prices for central whey are unchanged for the week. Manufacturers report 
making dry whey in line with active cheese production. In general, 
inventories are fairly heavy. End users say they are not looking to carry 
additional inventory. Buyers are accepting their contracted loads, but in 
some cases trying to push off a few loads to other end users. This has 
proven difficult because many processors are full as well. Several 
producers have seen buyer interest, but many feel that those interested 
are seeking a deal. Animal feed dry whey prices are unchanged in a quiet 
market. Feed manufacturers are working through existing inventories and 
are only purchasing materials if the price is right. 



F.O.B. CENTRAL:    .1800 - .2925   MOSTLY:    .2200 - .2600      
F.O.B. CENTRAL: ANIMAL FEED MILK REPLACER:    .1250 - .2325
