MD_DA710 DA MD DA710 Dry Whole Milk - National MADISON, WI. March 23, 2017 (REPORT 12) DRY WHOLE MILK - NATIONAL National dry whole milk f.o.b. spot prices are steady to lower on an unsettled market. The current national values are above international WMP prices. Some manufacturers are offering multiple loads at prices well below the bottom of the range and more close to the most recent GDT pricing results for WMP. However, buyers' responses to these offers have yet to be determined. Sales in the f.o.b. spot market have been generally slow throughout the week. Dry whole milk production is slightly up ahead of the upcoming spring holidays. Inventories vary in every region of the country. At the GDT Event 184 on March 21, whole milk powder (WMP) prices across all contract periods averaged $1.2950 per pound, up 2.9% from the last event. F.O.B.
