Nonfat Dry Milk - East and Central U.S.

Released on October 02, 2025

Low/medium heat nonfat dry milk (NDM) prices are down in the Central and East 
regions across the range and mostly price series. Contacts report low/medium 
heat NDM prices are stabilizing in the mid-to-upper $1.10s, as current prices 
are contributing to an uptick in demand from domestic purchasers. Export 
interest remains light, though some stakeholders say they anticipate increased 
demand from purchasers from Mexico in the coming weeks. Spot inventories of 
low/medium heat NDM are available in the East region and in the Southwest, but 
contacts say inventories remain snug in the Midwest. Increasing milk output is 
enabling drying operations to increase low/medium heat NDM production. This is 
also keeping high heat NDM production limited, as plant managers are focusing 
on low/medium heat NDM to work through available supplies of milk. Demand for 
high heat NDM is light, but inventories remain tight. Prices for high heat NDM 
followed low/medium heat by decreasing this week.
