Fluid Milk And Cream - East U.S.

Released on September 24, 2025

Milk supplies are rising in the Northeast as the start of fall brings lower 
temperatures and increased cow comfort. Milk is available for spot purchases. 
Facilities that were recently down, are now back in a limited capacity leading 
to less excess milk availability. Class I production is steady. Class II 
production is increasing. Heavy whipping cream demand is seasonally increasing 
due to increased holiday orders. Class III production is stronger. Spot milk 
purchases for cheese are on the rise predominantly due to international demand 
for cheese. Class IV production is strong. Butter production is increasing for 
consumer size packaging to fulfill holiday orders, but bulk butter production 
is slow. Cream multiples are mixed this week. Cream multiples for Class II use 
are still selling at higher rates. Cream destined for churns is selling flat to 
the CME. Condensed skim production remains heavy. Sales are mixed for condensed 
skim. Some contacts are selling condensed skim above Class price, while others 
are below Class price.
