MD DA771 Whey Protein Concentrate  - Central and West                   

MADISON, WI.  February 18, 2016 (REPORT 7)                              

WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE - CENTRAL AND WEST                             

The lower end of both the range and mostly price series jumped higher this 
week as a number of processors started asking for higher prices. A few 
manufacturers had used the previous lower prices to clear blocks of 
inventory. Some manufacturers state their inventories are tight, or at 
least committed. A few processors note an increase in demand and inquiries 
from buyers. Production is down a little as a few manufacturers continue 
to make higher protein concentrations rather than WPC34%.

F.O.B. EXTRA GRADE 34% PROTEIN:  .5500 - .6900  MOSTLY:  .5500 - .6100
