     Dry Whey - Western Europe

     Report 5 - Released on January 31, 2019

     European sweet whey prices are higher at the low end of the price range but firm at the top.
     This reflects recent stronger buying interest. Pricing in coming weeks is expected to
     benefit from continued good buying activity. Whey supplies are tighter than many buyers
     would like. Cheese production continuing to remain lower than optimal is a concern in whey
     markets.
     Prices for: Western Europe, All First Sales, Free on Board - Port, Conventional, and Edible
     Dry Whey
     Price Range - Non-Hygroscopic; $/MT:                   1,000 - 1,075
