Skim Milk Powder - South America

Released on February 12, 2026

For this reporting period, no skim milk powder (SMP) price changes are 
reported. In South America, milk production continues to be strong and feed 
costs are holding at moderate prices. However, decreasing milk prices are 
negatively impacting profits for dairy farmers. SMP production schedules are 
mixed. Some manufacturers are prioritizing whole milk powder production while 
in a higher point of seasonal milk production cycles. SMP demand is steady. SMP 
spot loads are available. CLAL.it data shows Argentina SMP production and 
exports increased for 2025 compared to 2024, while SMP exports for Uruguay 
decreased for 2025 compared to 2024. Data for Brazil shows 2025 SMP imports are 
up 26.93% compared to the previous year.
