DRY WHEY - WEST                                                  
                                                                 
Stocks of western dry whey are ample and growing.  Regional cheese 
production is absorbing increasing milk supplies and contributing to 
storage facilities holding increasing volumes of whey.  Whey market 
participants view this as a factor that will continue into the near 
term future.  Manufacturers are meeting contract commitments as well 
as making spot market offerings, with many buyers feeling some 
flexibility to be discerning in completing transactions.  Sellers of 
whey with some age are accepting lower prices to move product due to 
the volume of newer whey being manufactured and stored.  Buyers 
seeking whey have varied options to source it.
