As David Maloni, ArrowStream commodities expert, has discussed previously, “buyers need to respect the momentum in the markets, which is certainly to the upside.”

However, Maloni notes that, “with the higher cheese and milk prices, milk farmer margins continue to improve. This year, U.S. dairy farm net receipts is projected to rise 12.8 percent to its highest level since 2014.”
