Australian Butter Market Sees Downward Trend and South Africa Demand
The Australasian reports a notable drop in the fecal butter market by about 5d per tb this week. As production expands slightly, South Africa plans to start buying in September, with further declines likely to stimulate orders. If last year’s pattern holds, South African demand should absorb surplus until September, reducing London shipments until October. Cattle suffering winter delays delay full recovery, and Victorian butter exports to London may fall short of 1091-2. Weather will largely determine the season’s final output.
