Dry Buttermilk - East and Central U.S.

Released on May 14, 2026

The price range for buttermilk powder (BMP) increased at both ends this week 
for the Central and East regions. Demand for BMP remains strong, and prices are 
reflective of this. Butter churns continue to provide plenty of buttermilk for 
drying, but nonfat dry milk is getting priority for dryer availability. BMP 
production is steady week over week with emphasis on fulfilling contracted 
amounts. Spot market availability of BMP is scarce and inventories remain very 
tight.
