MD DA530 Dry Whey - Central                                      

MADISON, WI.  October 27, 2016 (REPORT 43)                       

DRY WHEY - CENTRAL                                               

The top end of the mostly price series moved up for central whey, while the price 
range and bottom of the mostly price series held steady. Manufacturers report 
growing interest from buyers to establish contracts for 2017. Demand is decent and 
dry whey is moving well through existing agreements. Production is solid. 
Inventories are mixed. A number of manufacturers have tight or committed 
inventories, but industry contacts suggest dry whey is available from some 
processors and in the secondary market. A few end users are content to work through 
remaining supplies as opposed to making new purchases. Prices for animal feed whey 
moved slightly higher. A few contacts suggest prices for whey permeate and other 
feed ingredients are providing some support for animal feed whey prices.

F.O.B. CENTRAL:    .2600 - .4100   MOSTLY:    .3050 - .3650      
F.O.B. CENTRAL: ANIMAL FEED MILK REPLACER:    .2200 - .3000
