DRY WHEY - NORTHEAST                                                 
                                                                     
This week, prices for dry whey are mixed as f.o.b. spot sales moved prices 
higher at the bottom of the range, but prices eased at the top of the range. 
Buyer interest is active in the spot market, with reports of bulk purchases 
occurring, predominately from export markets and brokers. Production is 
steady to slightly lower, with declines in milk supplies as volumes shift to 
Class I processing needs as a new school year begins. Market participants 
noted expectations of some firming in the near term. For now, manufacturers' 
stocks are adequate to balance. The dry whey market has a steady undertone.  
                                                                     
F.O.B. NORTHEAST:           EXTRA GRADE AND GRADE A:   .3600 - .4700
