Check out a new blog post from HighGround Dairy's Eric Meyer: What's on the 2025 Bingo Card? Excerpt: "Looking back to the start of 2024, CME spot block and barrel Cheddar prices were mired in the $1.40s, U.S. milk production had been in decline versus the prior year for nearly six consecutive months, and the remnants of commodity price inflation post-COVID had done a number to both foodservice and retail demand. While the window of opportunity for exports had opened, the lack of domestic demand growth during the first half of the year scared a lot of industry participants into believing that it would be a difficult year for cheese prices..." 🔗 Read the entire article now: https://lnkd.in/gTPTE-5f #HighGroundDairy #Dairy #DairyIndustry #Cheese #DairyProducts #DairyMilk #MilkProduction #MarketInsights #MarketReport #Blog Cheese Market News

HighGround Dairy's Chart of the Week: November 2024 California Milk Production 🐄 California's milk production fell below three billion pounds as avian influenza impacts milk flows. The state's total of 2.957 billion pounds was a 9.2% drop versus November 2023, solely due to losses in yields. Milk per cow of 1,730 pounds was the lowest figure since July 2006. More than half of the herds in the Golden State have been impacted, with the latest case count (12/16/24) at 650 herds. Of these cases, 266 were detected in the last 30 days, highlighting the rapid spread. 📝 Stay up-to-date on all things dairy markets by signing up for a 30-day Free Trial: https://hubs.ly/Q030l4y40 #HGChartOfTheWeek #HighGroundDairy #Dairy #DairyProducts #DairyIndustry #DairyMilk #MarketInsights #US #USDA #MilkProduction #California #CaliforniaDairy #DairyCows #HPAI #BirdFlu #AvianInfluenza
