AMS_1100 MARS Fluid Milk and Cream - Central U.S. Released on June 20, 2025 Increasing temperatures throughout the Central region are contributing to reduced cow comfort. Some contacts in the Midwest say milk output is steady, while others say production is declining. High June temperatures continue to negatively affect milk output in the Southwest. Class I demand is light, but demand is strong for all other Classes of milk. Some cheesemakers had unplanned downtime this week and were selling spot loads of Class III milk at lower prices compared to previous weeks. Cheesemakers say they are utilizing available milk to run busy schedules. Cream multiples for all Classes are up slightly from last week but are below last year's week 25 range of 1.20 - 1.38. These differences reflect contacts' reports that milk components are down week-to-week, though they remain up from this time last year. Cream remains available in the Central region, but spot loads are less ample than in previous weeks. Ice cream and butter makers continue to utilize available cream to run busy production schedules.
