EDITOR’S NOTE Due to changes in milk
supply agreements, milk import/export totals
are not directly comparable to year ago figures
and to shipments prior to April 1.2003
The following are the October 2003 Class and
component prices under the Federal Milk Order
pricing system Class II $lO 84 (up $O.OB from
September), Class 111 $14.39 (up $009), and
Class IV $10.16 (up $011) The following are
the product price averages used in computing
Class prices, butter $1.1611, NDM $0 8109,
cheese $1.5936, and dry whey $0 1892 The
Class 11 butterfat price is $1 2623 and the Class
111/IV butterfat price is $1.2553.
Milk production is reported as steady in most
of the region. The gains seen in parts of the
Southeast seem to have slowed and the de
creases seen in the Northeast also seem to have
eased. In the more northern areas, November is
often the low month of the year for milk output
on a daily average basis. Fluid milk supplies are
still tight. Class I needs are holding at fairly
good levels. Some manufacturers are moving
more milk to bottlers The good call for skim
milk and Class II condensed skim is reducing
the need for dryer time and some cheese makers
continue to report lighter production runs due
to the tight milk supply. Bottled milk sales are
steady at fair to good levels The striking or
locked out workers that shut down several large
retail chains, have voted to accept a new con
tract and stores are reopening as quickly as they
can be restocked. Florida's need for milk eased
lower as production is increasing slowly
The condensed skim market is little changed
from past weeks Contract sales of Class II are
moving nicely and spot interest is fair to good
Spot demand for Class 111 wet solids is limited
The fluid cream market is mostly steady at
firm levels. Spot pnees are mixed Last week’s
CME butter average did increase, but it is being
offset by lower multiples Suppliers report that
cream offerings are still tight and demand is im
proving Contacts note that supplies often
loosen up late in the week, but the opposite
seems true this week The increased usage in
holiday items, the improved call from butter
makers, and tight surplus milk volumes are
often cited as reasons for the tight cream sup
ply Ice cream makers are shifting into fall/
winter schedules, but most are making their
holiday flavors and staying busy Bottled cream
production is picking up seasonally as is egg
nog and dips. Cream cheese output is steady to
heavier when extra cream may be available
Butter output is increasing as producers want
more fresh butter for holiday orders Some pro
ducers are actively looking for more cream
