MD DA540 Dry Whey - West                                         

MADISON, WI.  July 21, 2016 (REPORT 29)                          

DRY WHEY - WEST                                                  

Western whey prices are steady this week and the market tone is mixed. 
Industry contacts note that inventories are a little tight for some 
specific brands. A few manufacturers' stocks are committed and the recent 
demand for dry whey in some export channels has helped draw down 
inventories. A few contacts suggest, however, there are no issues finding 
available dry whey and inventories may be a little heavy in some secondary 
markets. In addition, demand has been good in some export channels, but a 
few market participants say that demand has cooled somewhat in recent 
weeks. Domestic inquiries remain steady, but not outstanding. Production 
is stable.
