USDA Weekly Animal Feed, Central U.S.: May 19, 2022

Dry whey prices slid on increases in availability and quieting export demand. Some trading into Mexico was reported, but slowdowns from Southeastern Asia have clearly affected market prices/sentiment. Regionally, end users continue to report more offers moving into the $.50s than $.60+. Some buyers say they are somewhat full, but their processing is active and they will be looking for more sweet whey in the near-term.

  • Prices for Central U.S., All First Sales, FOB, Conventional and Non-Edible Dry Whey Price Range Animal Feed, $/lb: .5000 - .5300.
  • Prices for Central U.S., All First Sales, FOB, Extra Grade & Grade A, Conventional and Edible Dry Whey Price Range: Non-Hygroscopic, $/lb: .5300 - .6850; Mostly Range: Non-Hygroscopic, $/lb: .5700 - .6100.

Dairy Market Review: May 20, 2022

BUTTER: Grade AA closed at $2.8500. The weekly average for Grade AA is $2.7960 (+0.1420).

CHEESE: Barrels closed at $2.3475 and 40# blocks at $2.3800. The weekly average for barrels is $2.4130 (+0.0365) and blocks, $2.3740 (+0.0790).

CHEESE HIGHLIGHTS: Across all regions cheese production is active, though some production facilities in the Northeast and West are, reportedly, running below capacity due to labor shortages. Some cheese makers in the West also cite delayed deliveries of production supplies and limiting their ability to run full schedules. Midwestern cheese demand is mixed; contacts report that slipping prices in previous weeks caused some hesitance from purchasers, while others are purchasing to get ahead of a potentially bullish market.

BUTTER HIGHLIGHTS: Cream inventories are available in the West, and contacts note that purchasers from other regions are interested in buying loads to meet local production demands. Contacts in the Northeast and Central region relay that local cream spot availability is tighter. Some butter makers in the Northeast say that more cream is being churned this week, though butter production schedules vary across manufacturers. Meanwhile, butter makers in the Central and West regions are running active schedules. Western butter makers say that labor shortages are limiting their ability to run full schedules. Contacts in the Central region report that demand has softened in the past few weeks.

FLUID MILK HIGHLIGHTS: While milk production is still trending higher across much of the northern tier of states, milk output transitions to steady in the middle and southwestern states and then to lower in the southern states from New Mexico to Florida. The specific demarcation line varies week to week. Higher temperatures and humidity are starting to take hold in the south, suppressing cow comfort and milk output. Class I milk sales are moving lower as educational institutions reduce orders ahead of the summer breaks.
