Butter - Central U.S.
Report 49 - Released on December 02, 2020
Some butter producers report their prepared fall volumes are moving quickly. That said, some
have reported government orders have receded, and they are focusing more on their retail
customers. Food service remains slow, and butter contacts are still waiting for the full
impact of restaurant closures/restrictions. Cream has been, and is, widely available at
declining prices. Multiples are sliding, as has been expected, following the holiday. Butter
producers are unconcerned about finding cream for the rest of the month/year. Butter market
tones are improving day to day this week, but this fall has been anything but bullish for
the typically stalwart butter market.
Prices for: Central U.S., All First Sales, F.O.B., Grade AA, Conventional, and Edible Butter
Bulk Basis Pricing - 80% Butterfat $/LB: 0.0000 - +0.0500
Information for the period November 30 - December 4, 2020, issued weekly
