The following are the June 2002 Class

$11.19 (down $O.lO from May), Class 111

The Class II butterfat price is $1.1281 and
the Class 111/IV butterfat price is $1.1211.
Milk production is generally trending
lower in response to the recent heat wave.
The most notable declines are seen in
Louisiana and Mississippi. However,
some areas of the North and especially
farms in Florida are experiencing a de
layed response to the weather with milk
output generally unchanged from the
week prior. Cool rains are creating more
suitable weather for milk output yet un
desirable conditions for cutting hay. Ship
ments out of Florida were not expected
for the current week. However, 45 loads
are reportedly shipped out for the current
week. This is 19 loads less than last week.
Lackluster Class I sales are encourag
ing milk movement into manufacturing.
Milk is being diverted away from NDM
facilities and into cheese plants and some
evaporated facilities, allowing processing
time for high heat NDM. Some coops are
buying extra loads of milk to satisfy Class
111 interest.
Condensed skim supplies are reduced
in response to lower milk volume avail
ability in some areas. Condensed skim
prices are steady to higher. Condensed
skim movement is good into yogurt, ice
cream and cheese facilities.
Fluid cream supplies are tighter than
the week prior, encouraging multiples to
trade higher. Ice cream and cream cheese
facilities that were closed during the holi
day weekend are now resuming normal
production schedules and cream supply
intakes, decreasing cream supply avail
ability. However, ice cream production re
mains below seasonally anticipated levels.
Churning activity is steady to slightly
lower as less cream is diverted into butter
production.
