     Dry Whey - Central U.S.

     Report 48 - Released on November 24, 2020

     Dry whey prices are steady on expectedly slow trading this week. Production, even with some
     plants being affected by COVID-19 related staffing struggles, is steady according to most
     cheese/whey producers. Still, offers have been quiet and sellers are less willing to settle
     in recent weeks. Prices, both in the Midwest spot markets and on CME markets, are
     maintaining at or just above $.40 for the most part. Animal feed whey trading was quiet, but
     prices shifted higher on the top end. In general, dry whey market tones are on solid ground,
     at least in the near term.
