Better Cheese Prices Give Milk Markets a Needed Bump

Today’s spot market showed mostly positive activity, with cheese prices making notable gains. The Q1 futures market responded positively, climbing nearly 30 cents on average. Whey prices, which recently reached their highest levels since March 2022, also played a significant role in supporting the Class III market. This is another opportunity to clean up the rest of your Class III Q1 DRP as it closes next Friday.


Today’s Highlights

  • CME cheddar prices bounced back at today’s spot session. Spot blocks settled at $1.6700 per pound, $0.0325 higher, while barrels finished at $1.6500, up 4.5 cents.
