Review of Global Dairy Trade SMP auction completed

A review by Global Dairy Trade of their March 8th auction event found a reasonable explanation for higher-than-usual Ultra High-Temperature Skim Milk Powder prices.

Global Dairy Trade says the price outcomes from March 8th event 207 reflect that multiple bidders had strong needs to secure higher quantities of high-temp powder than was available for the event.

In a statement issued over the weekend, GDT says no evidence was found indicating a breach of trading rules when the index shot up 44.8%.  The winning prices for Ultra-High-Temp SMP that day were between 46 and 61% higher than the previous trading event and as much as 69% higher than Medium-Heat SMP.
