The November 2017 MPP margin rose $0.39 per cwt to $10.39, driven by a higher all-milk price and a lower feed cost, with corn prices contributing the largest decline. CME futures suggest the margin will drop below $8.00 per cwt in early 2018 as cheese and whey prices fall.
A forecast fall in the all-milk price would reduce dairy farmers' margins and could cut their feed purchasing. Lower corn and soybean meal costs in the feed formula partly offset this for producers.
