Madison Milk Shipments Reflect Drought Driven Demand
Daily market notes show the drought pressing milk movement into the South with 22 truckloads of whole milk shipped interstate for the week ending July 24, up from two loads last week and none in the prior comparable period. Twenty loads went to Florida, two tankers to southern Illinois, marking the first Florida shipments since January. Cream is scarce as ice cream plants absorb available stock, and spot cream has been hauled long distances when obtainable.
