     The East dry whey price series increased at both ends of the range this week. Cheese plant
     managers note that seasonal increases in farm level milk production are being seen, and more
     milk is clearing into Class III processing than has been in recent weeks. Liquid whey
     volumes have increased slightly, though dryer difficulties have been reported at several
     plants in the region. Domestic demand for dry whey has increased slightly as dry whey
     inventories have waned. Feed customers report little interest in dry whey as whey protein
     concentrate is more of a purchasing focus at the moment.

     Edible Dry Whey
