MD_DA136 Skim Milk Powder - South America Report 31 - Released on August 01, 2019 Skim milk powder prices moved higher at the top of the range, but held steady at the bottom. Demand is modest and inventories are flat. Manufacturers are more focused on making whole milk powder than skim milk powder with the lighter than expected milk supplies. As a result, production and offerings of SMP are limited. Some industry contacts expect this may help further support SMP market prices. However, the market tone for SMP is unsettled.
