Dairy
Weekly Animal Feed, Central U.S.: June 12, 2025
The bottom of the range and both ends of the mostly price series for Central dry whey moved higher this week, though the top of the price range was unchanged. Domestic dry whey demand is steady. Export interest is softening, as domestic loads priced in the mid-$0.50s are less competitive than dry whey produced internationally. Spot loads are available, though contacts report inventories are tighter for some brands, and for dry whey which meets certain specification requirements, due to strong demand for these loads. Cheesemakers say spot milk is trading at prices as low as $7-under Class III and they are using these volumes to run busy production schedules. This is leaving plenty of liquid whey available for drying, though some plant managers say their focus remains on higher whey protein concentrates. Animal feed whey production is limited. Production is in balance with light demand, keeping spot inventories snug. Prices for animal feed whey are holding steady.
Dairy Market Review: June 13, 2025
BUTTER: Grade AA closed at $2.5700. The weekly average for Grade AA is $2.5400 (+0.0035).CHEESE: Barrels closed at $1.8350 and 40# blocks at $1.8375. The weekly average for barrels is $1.8520 (-0.0025) and blocks $1.8595 (-0.0620).CHEESE HIGHLIGHTS: Last week’s CME weekly average prices for barrels and 40-pound blocks were down from the previous week. The CME prices are trending down this week as well. Some areas are reporting a downturn in milk production, while others have not reported any drops in raw milk. Milk output is generally sufficient to meet production needs. Educational institutions are out for summer break, reducing demand for milk from bottling operations. Additional availability has pushed spot Class III milk prices lower; volumes are trading from $7 under to $1 under this week. Inventories of cheese are tighter than expected but spot loads of cheese are available for purchase. Export demand for cheese is strong, as U.S. prices are competitive against other internationally produced cheeses. The higher international demand is offsetting weaker domestic demand of cheese.BUTTER HIGHLIGHTS: Demand for US butter, which remains competitively priced, is strong from international buyers. Domestic demand for butter is steady. Cream volumes in southern parts of the West and Central regions are tighter, while cream volumes elsewhere are steady. In both cases, quantities are sufficient for butter producers. Many plant managers are producing butter seven days a week. Bulk butter overages range from 7 cents below to 6 cents above market across all regions.FLUID MILK HIGHLIGHTS: Seasonal temperature changes are beginning to affect the amount of milk production in most areas, nationally. The Midwest and Northeast are still producing larger than expected volumes while other areas of the country are seeing declining production. Class I bottling facilities are seeing a drop in production, predominantly due to closure of educational institutions for the summer. Class II production is steadily increasing to account for the summer demands of ice cream and frozen dairy products. Ice cream manufacturers are purchasing spot loads of cream to accommodate the increased production. Class III production is steadily increasing. Cream demand is strong nationwide. Condensed skim milk activity is heavy in some areas and steady in others. Condensed skim sales are steady with most sales going below Class price. Cream multiples for all Classes range 1.10-1.27 in the East, 1.12-1.27 in the Midwest, and 1.02-1.20 in the West.
