MD DA540 Dry Whey - West                                         

MADISON, WI.  May 21, 2015 (REPORT 20)                           

DRY WHEY - WEST                                                  

Western whey prices were steady to lower this week.  The top of the mostly 
moved lower 1 cent. Industry contacts note that although food grade whey may 
be tight in some locations, product is generally available and a few spot 
sales have been made. Some off spec whey continues to enter the market. Buyer 
interest remains subdued in making purchases and is focused mostly on filling 
immediate needs.  There is a generally bearish view of market prices and 
without renewed buyer activity, no impetus for the market to strengthen in 
the near future.
