DRY WHOLE MILK - NATIONAL                                        
                                                                                          
National dry whole milk f.o.b. spot prices are unchanged from 
last week. The market undertone is steady. Overall, the domestic 
demand for dry whole milk is light. However, some manufacturers 
expect an uptick in sales during the upcoming confectionery 
season. Production is irregular, mostly determined by contractual 
needs. Inventories are mixed throughout the country. The March 
2017 Dairy Market News monthly average for the National price 
series for dry whole milk is $1.4467 compared to $1.2883 a year 
ago. The NASS Dairy Products report noted U.S. dry whole milk 
production during February 2017 totaled 10.2 million pounds, 17.7 
percent higher from one year ago, but 14.5 percent lower from the 
previous month. Total U.S. dry whole milk month ending stocks for 
February were 21.7 million pounds, 88.6 percent above last year.
