DRY WHEY - CENTRAL                                               
                                                                 
F.O.B. spot prices for Central dry whey are mixed on the range, but 
steady on the mostly series. Whey production is steady to slightly 
lower. Because milk intakes are dropping, some cheese production is 
decreasing, therefore slowing the whey stream. Demand for whey in the 
Central region is mixed this week. A few market participants feel 
buyers have purchased what they need and are stepping back from the 
market. Several industry contacts report resistance from buyers as 
they raise prices. However, other contacts continue to move loads at 
or above market pricing. International interest is still present, but 
a few market participants feel export sales are slowing. Inventories 
are mixed. The market undertone is steady. 

Animal feed whey prices are steady. Feed blenders report steady 
production and comfortable inventories. Demand is light. The market 
undertone is steady.
