Questions
About the brief
Who is the US Weekly dairy brief for?
Procurement managers, buyers, and category leads sourcing US dairy, plus the finance and supply chain stakeholders who need a weekly read on where prices are heading.
What is in each edition?
Where prices stand, with our analysts’ read on the CME spot board and on how US product sits against Europe, Oceania and the GDT. Then the deep dives, which change from week to week: milk production and herd size, cold storage, export volumes and destinations, farmgate margins, trade policy. Then the stories we have been reading, with a short interpretation of each.
Does it cover dairy market trends, or only this week’s prices?
Both. The spot board is the week, but the deep dives are about the trend behind it: whether a herd is still expanding, whether stocks are building or drawing down, whether an export market is opening or closing. That is usually what changes a buying decision, not a single day’s move.
How often will I receive it?
