USDA data show US cheese production in December 2023 rose about 1% year on year to 1.21 billion pounds, and butter output rose 4.4% to 196.32 million pounds. Dry milk product output fell sharply from a year earlier.
Strong cheese and butter output alongside weaker dry milk points to a shift in milk use that has limited support for skim-based feed ingredients.
After 136 past neutral report events, Milk (Class III) moved a median -0.1% over 5 sessions (43% higher; middle half -0.7% to +0.5%), and -0.3% over 20.
