WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE 34% - CENTRAL AND WEST                         

Whey protein concentrate 34% prices moved higher at the bottom of the 
range and at the top of the mostly price series. Industry contacts 
continue to report WPC 34% offers and resale prices are often well above 
published prices for highly desired brands and WPC34% with tight 
specifications. Manufacturers say there are a lot of people searching for 
available loads of WPC34% and they are getting a constant stream of 
inquiries, but the processors are unable to fill all of the WPC34% 
requests. Buyers that have the option of using other protein sources are 
rejecting the higher offers and looking to alternative protein sources to 
meet their needs. WPC34% production is steady.

F.O.B. EXTRA GRADE 34% PROTEIN:  .8250 - 1.0675  MOSTLY:  .8500 - 1.0300
