Dairy Outlook is a service of FAO’s Trade and Markets Division

 

The FAO Dairy Price Index averaged 193 points in January, unchanged from December. Prices were little changed across the board, a marked departure from the trend recorded in the second half of 2016, when the Index jumped by 50 percent (May-December). With peak seasonal production moving from the southern to the northern hemisphere and many major buyers having secured adequate supplies in earlier months, trade remained subdued.
