Dairy Prices Rise But Not Everywhere | Auckland News

Dairy markets show mixed but mostly positive momentum in the latest Global Dairy Trade auction, with cheddar, lactose, and skim milk powder leading gains while butter and fat-based products slipped. Whole milk powder rose 0.2%, cheddar jumped 3.8%, and lactose surged 4.1%. Volume hit a new high at 40,000 metric tons to 132 bidders — up from 27,000 tons and 117 bidders last time. Fonterra’s farmgate price forecast for 2026-27 was slightly lowered but remains within a wide range, still reflecting one of the strongest seasons on record.
