MD DA530 Dry Whey - Central                                      

MADISON, WI.  November 03, 2016 (REPORT 44)                      

DRY WHEY - CENTRAL                                               

The central whey price range held steady, but the mostly price series moved 
higher. Some manufacturers report more inquiries from buyers and spot sale 
prices trending higher. Dry whey producers are beginning to develop contracts 
for 2017. A few processors say domestic demand is good and export demand is 
present, but comes and goes. Dry whey is moving well through existing 
contracts. Some brands of dry whey are in limited supply, but whey is generally 
available to fill most needs. Dry whey production is steady. However, a few 
processors note an increase in liquid whey coming off cheese production lines 
and this may soon translate into more dry whey. Animal feed whey prices moved 
higher at the top end of the price range this week.

F.O.B. CENTRAL:    .2600 - .4100   MOSTLY:    .3100 - .3800      
F.O.B. CENTRAL: ANIMAL FEED MILK REPLACER:    .2200 - .3200
