Dry Buttermilk - West U.S.

Released on January 15, 2026

mostly price series, while the bottom ends are unchanged. Domestic demand is 
somewhat stronger. Demand from international buyers is steady. Although plenty 
of liquid buttermilk is available from butter churning, dry buttermilk

slightly more available this week.
