# European milkfat production slows, but is it enough to lift prices?

> European milkfat prices continue to decline even though supply growth is starting to slow. Butter output remains above last year's level, keeping availability and stocks elevated. Export volumes are rising but at lower values, and competition from the US and New Zealand is adding pressure.
