AMS_1101 MARS Fluid Milk And Cream - East U.S. Released on June 04, 2025 Milk production in the Eastern region is holding steady this week. The Northeast is nearing the end of the spring flush, but contacts say they have not seen a drop in production yet. The Southeast has seen a decrease in milk output, but supplies are sufficient to meet demand. Contacts say there was no indication milk components are declining, but they anticipate warmer weather in June will cause components to decrease in the coming weeks. Summer break started for an increasing number of educational institutions in the region, contributing to lighter demand from bottlers. Class II manufacturers are ramping up production in preparation for the summer. Milk for Class III production is holding steady. Spot loads of milk are available for cheese production. Cream is still in heavy use this week. Butter churns are operating at or near capacity. Butter contacts report contract loads are sufficient to meet current production requirements. Spot loads of cream for Class II and Class III use are readily available. Cream multiples held steady at the bottom of the range, but rose at the top this week. Condensed skim is available and demand is steady. Northeast, F.O.B. Condensed Skim Range - Class II; Dollars per Pound 1.22 - 1.27 Range - Class III; Dollars per Pound 1.05 - 1.2 Northeast, F.O.B.
