     Buttermilk - Eastern and Central U.S.

     Report 33 - Released on August 18, 2022

     CENTRAL:
     Central/East dry buttermilk prices moved lower at the top of the range and held steady at
     the bottom. Dry buttermilk production is sporadic. Industry contacts suggest that although
     demand is weak, tight supplies are supporting prices to some extent. Industry contacts
     expect prices to come under more pressure as prices for nonfat dry milk powder have
     weakened.

     EAST:
     The top of the Central/East dry buttermilk price moved downward, but the bottom of the price
     range held steady. Industry contacts report stocks are tight. Condensed buttermilk is
     finding its way into ice cream production and other uses as opposed to the drying tower. Dry
     buttermilk demand is quiet.


     Prices for: Eastern and Central U.S., All First Sales, F.O.B., Conventional, and Edible
     Buttermilk
     Price Range ; $/LB:                                    1.8600 - 1.9400
