MADISON, WI.  December 29, 2016 (REPORT 52)                          


DRY WHEY - NORTHEAST                                                 
                                                                     
Eastern dry whey prices moved up at the bottom of the range, in light 
holiday trading. The market tone is steady to firm. Dry whey production 
facilities note marginal increases due to higher milk intakes at area 
cheese plants. However, producers' inventories of dry whey remain tight. 
Demand for dry whey is down this week with reports of very little market 
activity. Further, buyers' purchases are typically as needed until after 
the New Year. 
                                                                     
F.O.B. NORTHEAST:           EXTRA GRADE AND GRADE A:   .3900 - .4600
