“Cow numbers, dairy cow numbers, higher than we had been forecasting so we accepted that revision in dairy cow numbers and that incorporates into a 200 million pound increase in milk supply, U.S. milk supply, year-over-year that would be up 1.2 billion pounds,” he said.

Lucas Fuess with RaboResearch believes China will help drive some global demand resurgence in the second half of the year.
