February 17, 2026

Global Dairy Trade prices rose for the fourth straight auction, with the index up 3.6% and butter surging nearly 10%. In this episode, Cody Koster and Jon Spainhour break down key moves across butter, cheese, powders, and regional buying trends—highlighting export opportunities, softer-than-expected skim milk powder gains, and the role of China and Southeast Asia. They also examine how strong US nonfat prices and high global milk production could shape markets in the months ahead.
