MD DA560 Dry Whey - Northeast                                        

MADISON, WI.  August 18, 2016 (REPORT 33)                            


DRY WHEY - NORTHEAST                                               
                                                                     
Eastern dry whey prices are steady. Production is below plant capacity 
at many locations. Drops in farm milk and increased fluid milk needs 
limit output. However, output volumes show marginal increases, prompted 
by a surge in mozzarella production for fall needs. Dry whey supplies 
are adequate for contractual obligations, but sources note few spot 
offers. Domestically, demand for whey is steady and at seasonal norms. 
International interest is good, with heavy dry whey volumes clearing to 
China. The market undertone is steady.

F.O.B. NORTHEAST:           EXTRA GRADE AND GRADE A:   .2650 - .3125
