Butter - West U.S.

Released on September 10, 2025

Stakeholders indicate plenty of cream is available. Some handlers note 
production of dairy products utilizing cream is going down, while fat 
components in milk output are going up. Cream demand from butter manufacturers 
is mixed and they are running their churns at under 100 percent capacity. Most 
butter manufacturers are more focused on retail production than bulk 
production. Stakeholders indicate butter purchasing for micro fixing is less 
active this year. Retail butter demand continues to be more robust than food 
service demand. Export demand is steady. The CME closing butter price for 
September 10, 2025, is $1.9650, falling below $2.00 for the first time since 
December 2021.
