CASEIN - NATIONAL                                                
                                                                 
Casein prices were unchanged for both rennet and acid types. Production 
has declined in Europe, reflecting the decline in milk production. 
Production in Oceania is minimal as the seasonal swing in milk production 
has not yet occurred. Despite current production levels, global supplies 
remain readily available for both types. Demand is weak as buyers have 
adequate supplies to cover their current needs and are not inclined to 
expand supplies. The market has a weak undertone.
