| Explanation DCA Markets: The market for Dutch raw cow's milk has a better undertone than in previous weeks. Less milk than anticipated means that processors are less willing to part with the milk at lower prices. What also helps are rising prices in the butter and cheese trade. | |||
| DCA Room | Price range (wk 14) | Number of problems | Average |
| €5,80 (+€0,40) | € 5,60 - € 5,95 | 6 | €5,78 |
| Explanation DCA Markets: Prices rose quickly on the butter market this week and business could even be done at €5,10 per kilo ex work. Because the increase was not anticipated, there was some emotion in the market and this continued into the cream market. As a result of the development outlined, the price of cream rose rapidly. | |||
| DCA skimmed milk concentrate | Price range (wk 14) | Number of problems | Average |
| €860 | € 780 - € 950 | 6 | €865 |
| Explanation DCA Markets: The market for skimmed milk concentrate picked up again this week. Something that was partly possible due to increased demand from the fresh produce corner. Even skimmed milk passed the €0,05 mark to reach €0,06, maybe €0,07. However, further steps upward are difficult due to pressure on the price of skimmed milk powder. | |||
