# Dairy Report: Expect Slower Growth In Milk Per Cow - EDairy News English

> The USDA lowered its 2019 and 2020 US milk production forecasts because of slower expected growth in milk per cow. It also reduced 2020 cheese, butter and whey price forecasts and raised the all-milk price forecast to $19.25 per hundredweight, although the text states the all-milk price was reduced.
