Dairy Markets Week in Review
Talk about Happy Thanksgiving….Cash block cheese this week matched the record $2.20 per pound set in April 2004 and closed the holiday-shortened week a nickel higher than the previous week and 81 3/4-cents above that week a year ago. Barrel closed Wednesday at $2.08, also up a nickel on the week and 65 1/4-cenet above a year ago. Only four cars of block were sold on the week and three of barrel.
Butter closed at $1.3725, down a quarter-cent on the week, but 9 1/4-cents above a year ago. Ten cars were sold.
