Released on May 07, 2026

In the West, dry whey prices moved 1 to 2 cents lower at both ends of the range 
and mostly price series. Demand from domestic and international buyers is 
steady. Spot load availability varies with brand. Some manufacturers have very 
tight inventories for buyers looking to pick up spot loads. Stakeholders 
indicate contractual obligations are generally being met. Production of whey 
protein concentrates and isolates continues to be more of a priority than sweet 
whey for many manufacturers.
