Procurement Prices Fall Amid Large Surpluses
Surpluses of raw milk and finished products are putting pressure on procurement prices. A certain price stabilization is expected in the 3rd-4th quarter of 2026, according to Georghii Kukhaleishvili, analyst at the Association of Milk Producers (AMP).
Global Dairy Market: Raw Material Prices Have Dropped Temporarily
According to IFCN estimates, global milk production volumes are expected to increase by 11 million tonnes in 2025 compared to last year. The weather in Southern Hemisphere countries was favorable, leading to production growth in Oceania and Latin America. Farmers in Europe and the US enjoyed good profits, which also stimulated increased production. Furthermore, demand for milk components rose, contributing to increased production of milk powder and protein products. At the same time, milk production is shrinking in China due to weaker domestic demand, so the volume of finished product imports is also not increasing. IFCN analysts believe that the current price drop is temporary, and in the long term, dairy fat and protein are expected to become more expensive, as these components remain scarce. According to the IFCN forecast, the world could face a milk deficit of more than 20 million tonnes (in milk equivalent) by 2035. Most likely, demand will partially remain unmet, prices will rise, and competition in domestic and foreign markets will intensify.
