Manufacturing facilities are using most of their contract loads, leaving some milk available for spot sales, but not as much as in previous weeks. Class I demand is strong in the Southeast and steady in the Northeast. Bottlers in the South are shipping milk from other states to meet demand. Class II demand is steady. Manufacturers continue to produce seasonal dairy products to fulfill retail and food service demand. Class III production is steady. Many cheese and whey producers are happy with the current market demand for whey derivatives, keeping cheese production in a steady state. Class IV production is steady to strong. Butter producers are operating churns seven days a week. Some butter producers are choosing to sell some of their cream to Class II and Class III manufacturers due to the high multiples for those products.
