Market analyst Sarina Sharp, of Dairy Business News, joins The Milk Check crew to talk about the lacking rain in the West, labor shortages and demand expectations for the second half of the year.
While the drought won’t drastically affect overall milk production, it will put Western dairy producers in a bind as feed prices and hauling rates increase. California producers also have to weigh the rising cost of scarce labor.
The crew also discusses issues like the accuracy of Class III price forecasts and how freight uncertainties continue to challenge exporting efforts.
