Strong Price to Lift U.S. Milk OutputWASHINGTON - May 12/05 - SNS -- Milk production in the United States in 2006 is forecast above 2005 as relatively strong milk prices over the past 2 years are expected to help stabilize cow numbers in 2006, according to the USDA's World Agricultural Outlook Board latest report. Milk per cow is expected to increase at a more rapid rate in 2006. Fat-basis commercial use is expected to increase more rapidly than in 2005, but growth in commercial use of skim solids is expected to be somewhat slower than this year. Milk prices are forecast to fall from the strong prices of 2005 as product prices weaken. With weaker nonfat dry milk prices, positive CCC net removals of nonfat dry milk are forecast for 2006.
