     Casein - National Casein Report for U.S. Imports

     Report 9 - Released on March 02, 2023

     As recovery efforts from Cyclone Gabrielle go forward in New Zealand, the damage to pasture
     and crops is far from being tallied. Prime milking season is toward its tail end in the
     region. Casein contacts, though, have said they were expecting a quieter market prior to the
     flood/damages on New Zealand's North Island and that has been the case for the past few
     weeks. Prices for both acid and rennet casein were unchanged for the second consecutive
     week. Some contacts expect quiet markets for the remainder of Q1.
     Prices for: Spot Sales And Up to 3 Month Contracts, Free on Board - Warehouse, Non-
     Restricted, All Mesh Sizes, Conventional, and Edible Casein

     Acid; Price Range - $/LB:                    6.1500-6.3500
     Rennet; Price Range - $/LB:                  5.7400-6.0000
