MD DA540 Dry Whey - West                                         

MADISON, WI.  April 30, 2015 (REPORT 17)                         

DRY WHEY - WEST                                                  
       
Western dry whey markets are steady with prices unchanged.  Many 
participants were away from their plants and offices at an industry 
annual meeting.  There seems to have been little transactional 
activity that occurred this week, aside from normal contract 
deliveries.  Off spec whey was manufactured.  There is surplus whey 
available in the market.  Cheese production in the region is at a high 
level due to seasonal milk and good demand, which is contributing to 
resulting whey volumes.
