Weather continues to play a major role in milk output in the East Continued rains in the far north are making first cut ting alfalfa difficult to harvest and some fields have been left fallow because they are too wet to plant. Much of the region from the Northeast to Florida is experi encing very hot weather and the milk flow is being adversely affected. However, Florida’s milk output is reported to have rebounded as the state is getting some much needed rain and the evenings are not as hot as they have been. This, along with much slower Class I demand, has forced nearly 100 loads of milk out of state for processing. This is a significantly higher number than a week ago and sur prised many contacts. As is normal, the effects of the hot weather are seen in lower fat and protein levels. Class I sales are steady at slow lev els in nearly all areas of the East. Surplus milk supplies are heavier in the South east; steady to slightly lower in the more northern areas.

The condensed skim market is basically steady. Some prices for July Class 111 sales are expected to be up slightly based on estimates of the July Class 111 skim milk price. The fluid cream market started the week on the weak side, but firmed up by midweek. Supplies were long, but did tighten significantly as users try to step up output before they shut down during the holiday weekend. Reports indicate that several cream cheese operations will not take cream most of next week which will impact availability. Also, several ice cream plants have notified supplies that they will be down from the fourth to the seventh. This week, spot prices are virtu ally unchanged from last week. Multiples were occasionally lower, but mostly in the mid to upper 130’s. Demand is reported as mixed. Ice cream output is at normal summer levels and the hot weather is helping consumption of soft serve and frozen novelties. Bottled cream sale are starting to slow as most of the strawberry season is past. Cream cheese output is moderate to heavy this week. Churning activity is lighter.
