Milk production is easing additionally in the Southeast, while ranging steady to lower in the Northeast. Heat and humidi ty are taking their toll on the cows in Florida and other Gulf Coast States and handlers report lighter weights on farm route trucks. Florida handlers note that exports to manufacturing are down this week, but may rebound next week when retail features conclude. Rain continues to fall across parts of New York and New England. This is de laying some field work and haying. Con tacts report that incoming milk volumes are easing from peak levels and that fat and protein tests are slipping. This is typi cal for this time of year when quality hay and other feed supplies tighten. Also, there have been reports that the low price for milk has forced some farmers to alter their feeding practices, particularly in re gard to supplements. Schools in the Northeast are closing this week or next and bottlers expect order to drop off sig nificantly late this week. This should/ could push more milk into manufactur ing. There is ample capacity to handle any extra milk in the region. The condensed skim market is little changed. Spot demand and prices are un changed. Offerings range from fully ade quate to ample. The fluid cream market has finned considerably in the past few weeks. Con tacts report that supplies have tightened and demand has improved. Offerings are tight and some reports note that West Coast cream is starting to be shipped across the country. Spot prices have moved significantly higher. With the CME butter price holding as steady as it has been, suppliers are adjusting multi ples to reflect the tightness of supply and increased demand. Suppliers and produc ers are getting more calls looking for cream. This is at a time when they also are looking for loads to supplement their short supply. There was a report from one supplier that skim milk demand was off this week and this did affect the volumes of cream they had to offer. With schools winding down cream availability from standardization will decrease, but these volumes may be offset by more milk mov ing through separators at butter/powder plants. Bottled cream sales are improving seasonally. Ice cream production is pick ing up. However, the relatively cool, rainy weather is hurting consumption. Soft serve mix sales are fair. Cream cheese output is about steady and some of the large producers are actively out looking for additional loads of cream. Churning activity is often lighter as some butter makers are selling their own cream at current market prices.
