Dry Whey - Central U.S.

Released on September 04, 2025

The top of the Central region dry whey price range moved lower this week, while 
the bottom and both ends of the mostly price series were unchanged. Domestic 
demand for dry whey is steady, but varies by manufacturer. Export interest is 
light, as prices for U.S. dry whey are at a premium compared to loads from 
other countries. Spot loads of dry whey are available to meet current market 
demands, despite some manufacturers saying inventories remain tight. Dry whey 
production is steady week-to-week, but manufacturers continue to focus on 
higher whey protein concentrates, limiting dry whey production. Prices for 
animal feed whey are unchanged this week. Animal feed whey production is 
limited, and demand remains light.
