     Buttermilk - Eastern and Central U.S.

     Report 47 - Released on November 22, 2022

     CENTRAL: Dry buttermilk prices in the Central region are steady to lower. Contacts indicate
     that market demand has been quiet during the holiday week. In addition, a few contacts
     suggest that the top of the price range is very difficult to achieve except for a few
     preferred brands. With churning activity increasing over the last few weeks, production of
     condensed and dry buttermilk is higher, and powder inventories are a bit more available.

     EAST: Eastern dry buttermilk prices are steady to lower. Cream supplies and churning are
     picking up in the final push before the end of the year holidays. As a result, condensed and
     dry buttermilk are more available. Demand is weak, and spot sales activity is slow,
     especially in this holiday week.


     Prices for: Eastern and Central U.S., All First Sales, F.O.B., Conventional, and Edible
     Buttermilk
     Price Range ; $/LB:                                    1.4200 - 1.6000
