USDA Central States Print Butter 04/23 15:30
AMS_1089 MARS
Butter - Central U.S.
Released on April 23, 2025
After the holiday weekend, butter churning has resumed and is moving along
steadily. Butter plant managers relay cream remains abundant. Some suggest they
are expecting cream to remain available through or around the Memorial Day
holiday, if not longer. Cream multiples, despite the recent holiday plant
downtime, have held at or just above flat market as ice cream and cream cheese
processors have picked up some manufacturing steam. Butter demand is meeting
seasonal expectations. It is far from highly active, but butter makers suggest
retail and food service customers are content with current prices and steadily
adding to orders. Butter markets are sturdy, as prices have seemingly gained a
foothold above the $2.30/lb mark.
