MADISON, WI. September 17, 2015 (REPORT 37)                           

NONFAT DRY MILK - WEST   

Prices for low/medium nonfat dry milk are higher in a firmer 
market. Production of low/medium heat NDM is steady to higher. 
The availability of condensed skim for drying is increasing, as 
the requests from ice cream manufacturers are lower. In 
addition, some processors are adding more milk to butter/powder 
plants expecting higher returns. Currently, some producers 
indicate comfortable inventories. Spot sales are adequate as the 
fall baking season is close. Prices for high heat nonfat dry 
milk are higher. Production is marginally improving mostly based 
on contracts. Inventories are steady. Sales in the spot market 
from bakers are slightly higher. The market tone is mixed.

LOW/MEDIUM HEAT:    .7600 - .9300   MOSTLY:   .8000 - .8900
