U.S. cheese export volumes hit a new monthly high during March.
Record cheese shipments unable to carry March dairy exports

American Farm Bureau Federation’s chief economist Roger Cryan tells Brownfield, “We’ll see where the sales go.” “Our best overseas market for American cheese is Mexico,” he says.

Cheese exports for the month were up more than 20 percent from last year with Mexico buying the second-largest monthly volume on record.

The U.S. Dairy Export Council says despite that strength, dairy exports for March fell seven percent and are down three percent for the first quarter. The value of dairy exports is down 10 percent for the first three months of the year compared to 2023.

Whey protein concentrate 80 exports were up 32 percent, while low-protein whey exports fell eight percent. Nonfat dry milk exports were down 18 percent, with much of the decline coming from reduced demand from Mexico.
