DRY WHOLE MILK - NATIONAL                                        

In the U.S., f.o.b. spot prices for dry whole milk are unchanged 
from last week on light trading. Sales are mostly based on 
contracts. For some industry participants, the market tone looks 
to be stable in all regions of the country. Demands from the 
bakery and confectionary sectors are slightly inching up, as the 
Q4 holiday season is close. Production is steady while 
inventories vary from plant to plant. 
 
The NASS Dairy Products report noted U.S. dry whole milk 
production during August 2017 totaled 8.9 million pounds, 32.8 
percent higher from one year ago, but 8.2 percent lower than the 
previous month. Total U.S. dry whole milk month ending stocks for 
August were 16.1 million pounds, 24.5 percent above last year.  

F.O.B. PRODUCING PLANT:         1.3500 - 1.5500
