Nonfat Dry Milk - West U.S.

Released on March 26, 2026

Prices for low/medium heat nonfat dry milk (NDM) increased for both ends of the 
range and mostly price series in the West. Stakeholders indicate spot loads are 
more available from some parts of the West region compared to the neighboring 
Central region, but spot loads are generally tight even in the West region. 
Stakeholders report domestic demand varies from steady to stronger and export 
demand varies from moderate to steady. Production schedules are steady. Some 
plant managers convey NDM production is down compared to this time last year 
because of milk draws for production of higher protein dairy commodities. High 
heat NDM prices increased as well. Production schedules are not robust and 
demand is moderate.
