ZISK

A dairy economist says domestic butter manufacturers have an opportunity to serve more of the U.S. market.


Corey Geiger with CoBank says butter imports since the pandemic have skyrocketed.


“The growth this year, up 72 percent,” he says. “We’re setting records for butterfat and the American farmer can’t send enough of it to the processor.”


He says the trend for higher milk solids and more butterfat has only gotten stronger over the past decade
