CREAM MULTIPLES
WEST
Here’s what USDA/AMS had to say:
Cream demand and availability are steady. Cream multiples are unchanged for week 22. Condensed skim milk availability and demand are unchanged.
CENTRAL
Here’s what USDA/AMS had to say:
Cream production is steady in the region but remains strong compared to last year. Contacts say Class II processors continue to pull on cream inventories.
NORTHEAST
Here’s what USDA/AMS had to say:
Contracted cream supplies are adequate for butter plants operating seven days a week, although few butter manufacturers are accepting spot cream. Offers for excess spot cream are slow. Condensed skim demand is good, availability is limited and offers are above both Class II and Class III prices.
