MD DA771 Whey Protein Concentrate  - Central and West                   

MADISON, WI.  July 30, 2015 (REPORT 30)                                 

WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE - CENTRAL AND WEST                             

The whey protein concentrate 34% prices moved lower this week. Some spot 
sales occurred, but general demand is limited. Many buyers are making 
purchases on an as needed basis and are not eager to build their 
inventories. Production is steady and inventories are long. Some contacts 
said there is still interest in exploring the substitution of dry egg 
products with whey protein concentrates. Whey protein concentrates can 
sometimes be used to replace the functionality of dry eggs in baking. 
Agriculture officials are concerned about the possibility of a recurrence 
of the avian influenza as cooler temperatures and migratory birds return.

F.O.B. EXTRA GRADE 34% PROTEIN:  .7000 - .8650  MOSTLY:  .7100 - .7900
