MD DA540 Dry Whey - West                                         

MADISON, WI.  December 30, 2015 (REPORT 52)                      

DRY WHEY - WEST                                                  

Western whey prices held steady on limited spot market activity. Dry whey 
production is steady to higher. Some processors have increased dry whey 
manufacturing due to additional milk being diverted into cheese making from 
bottling. Inventories are comfortable, but have grown somewhat over the 
winter holidays. Most buyers and sellers seem willing to take a wait and see 
position until after the holidays.
