MD DA540 Dry Whey - West                                         

MADISON, WI.  October 15, 2015 (REPORT 41)                       

DRY WHEY - WEST                                                  

Western whey prices were steady to higher. The top end of both the range 
and mostly price series moved up this week. Inquiries are increasing from 
end users and some additional sales are moving into export markets. Some 
buyers are finding that low-priced whey is not as readily available. 
Industry contacts suggest inventories are substantial within second-tier 
markets. However a number of manufacturers report their whey is becoming 
more committed and not as available for spot sales. Dry whey production is 
active.
