Dairy Market News Reporting Changes Proposal
Dairy Market News (DMN) is proposing updating the Dairy Market News 
Working Guidelines. This proposal is the result of an industry comment 
period. The updates would allow DMN market reports to additionally 
include information and sales prices reported by individuals and firms 
functioning as marketing agents selling on the behalf of dairy product 
manufacturers. The Working Guidelines updates are intended to capture 
more information on pricing and market conditions and reflect the 
evolution of the marketing of dairy products. Currently, market 
pricing information is collected for first sale, f.o.b. producers' 
plants or warehouses. The changes would be effective starting with 
Report 1, January 2016.
