     The price ranges for both acid and rennet casein held steady this week. Contacts in Oceania
     report strengthening domestic demand for acid casein. Meanwhile, export sales of acid casein
     from Oceania are said to be light. Contacts report inventories of acid casein are available
     to meet current spot market demands. Seasonally stronger milk production in the region is
     contributing to an uptick in acid casein production. In Europe, rennet casein demand is
     stabilizing. Loads of rennet casein are available for spot purchasing, as contacts report
     steady production of rennet casein in Europe.
