MD DA560 Dry Whey - Northeast                                        

MADISON, WI.  August 10, 2017 (REPORT 32)                            

DRY WHEY - NORTHEAST                                                 
                                                                     
This week, Northeast dry whey markets saw f.o.b. spot prices back off 
slightly at the bottom of the range. Reports indicate inventories are 
substantial as suppliers look to clear volumes prior to Q4. Trades 
are occurring, but not at rates that balance inventory dry whey 
suppliers currently hold. Hence, market participants are delaying 
purchases, in anticipation of negotiating market prices for dry whey 
even lower. Domestic demand is fair to sluggish. Global interest has 
slowed. The current undertone affords the possibility that a buyers' 
market could be in the making.                                                                     

F.O.B. NORTHEAST:           EXTRA GRADE AND GRADE A:   .3500 - .4700
