Dry Buttermilk - East and Central U.S.

Released on July 16, 2026

Buttermilk powder markets are steady, though some adjustments were made to 
reflect current trading conditions. The price range is lowered on reported 
market activity. This action tracks the recent price decline of nonfat dry milk 
prices that compete for available dryer time. Eastern buyers continue to report 
difficulty securing spot buttermilk powder as inventories remain tight. Butter 
production remains steady, supporting liquid buttermilk availability for 
drying. However, dryer schedules continue to favor nonfat dry milk, which is 
limiting buttermilk powder output.
