The U.S. Dairy Export Council says dairy exports surged through February despite Leap Year and shipping challenges mainly driven by nonfat dry milk/skim milk powder to Mexico and Southeast Asia.
Dairy exports during February were up 15 percent in volume and up seven in value percent to $565.5 million.
Total nonfat dry milk/skim milk powder exports grew more than 30 percent compared to 2020 volumes with nearly a 40 percent rise from Southeast Asia and 30 percent increase from Mexico.
