Milk powder inventories were tight at the end of May, and while that partially helps explain why CME spot nonfat dry milk (NDM) powder prices have soared this year, additional increases in milk production could soon shift the supply-and-demand picture for U.S. milk powders.


“Increases in milk production could result in more skim and nonfat dry milk powder output and, eventually, lower prices,” said Sarina Sharp, analyst with the Daily Dairy Report. “While cheese plants have been taking a greater share of the milk supply in USDA’s Central region, dryers have been running hard in the West.”
