Butter - Central U.S.

Released on June 27, 2025

In the Central region, spot loads of cream are available. Contacts report fat 
content in milk remains up from a year ago, but increasing temperatures are 
causing milk components to decline week-to-week. Ice cream makers are scooping 
up spot loads of cream to increase production, to keep pace with summer demand. 
Butter makers are also utilizing available spot cream volumes to run busy 
production schedules. Contacts report domestic butter demand is softening, but 
export butter demand remains strong. Spot loads of butter are available to meet 
current market demands, and some butter makers are freezing recent production 
to build inventories for use later in the year.
