MD DA560 Dry Whey - Northeast                                        

MADISON, WI.  April 13, 2017 (REPORT 15)                             

DRY WHEY - NORTHEAST                                                 
                                                                     
In the Northeast region, whey production is strong. Northeastern whey prices 
held steady on the bottom half of the range, and shifted downward a tad on 
the top half of the price range this week. Industry contacts have reported 
seeing resale loads at prices lower than published prices. Market 
participants have also communicated there is not an urgency to move whey, 
and some manufacturers would rather sit on loads. Spot sales continue to be 
light. Interest for dry whey is steady, and the market is firming, 
potentially due to a Northeast cheese plant closing its doors in a month. 
The market tone is stable. 

F.O.B. NORTHEAST:           EXTRA GRADE AND GRADE A:   .4300 - .5600
