Cheddar Set-Aside Cut as Cheese Output Tops Expectations
WEA lowers cheddar set-aside to 65 percent from 70, though 5 percent above July 1944 target. Production runs 7 to 8 percent higher, likely yielding 58 million pounds for the military and 36 million for civilians. May milk output sets a record, with factory cheese output still high before a seasonal decline. Wisconsin milk output for five months in 1945 tops 1944 by half a billion pounds. cheddar production in 1945 projected at 850 to 900 million pounds. Suspension of WFA order 92 until July 15 supports the market, with added milk boosting cheese consumption.
