NONFAT DRY MILK - CENTRAL AND EAST                                              
                                                                                
CENTRAL:  Low/medium heat nonfat dry milk prices moved lower this week. 
Sellers are reporting little buying interest in a weak market. Some 
buyers purchased stocks as the prices began to drop and now have enough 
for current needs. Production rates continue to be strong as most 
manufacturers are using available drying time to produce NDM. Export 
interest is light. High heat nonfat dry milk prices are also lower in a 
weak market. Production is scarce as most manufacturers are using drying 
time for other dry products. Demand is light
EAST:  Prices for low/medium nonfat dry milk are lower in a weak market. 
Manufacturers continue to dry heavy condensed skim volumes at a high 
rate. NDM demand is steady, with loads clearing to Class II, and III 
outlets. Buyers continue to make hand-to-mouth purchases in the current 
market, as prices decline. Inventories of low/medium NDM continue to 
expand. High heat nonfat dry milk prices declined. Manufacturing output 
is limited by available dryer time. Supplies remain hard to find in the 
spot market, but adequate for filling contracted demand. 

F.O.B. CENTRAL/EAST:  Includes EXTRA GRADE and GRADE A                          
LOW/MEDIUM HEAT:   .7500 - .9300          MOSTLY:   .7900 - .8500               
HIGH HEAT:         .9700 - 1.0500
