Fluid Milk and Cream — Western U.S. July 29 Milk output is decreasing in California, and component levels are lower. Milk is still widely avail- able, however, and some contacts report balance between supply and demand. Bottling sales are lower. Class II and Class III demand is steady. Recent reports indicate that monsoon rains across the Southwest have helped provide a modicum of drought improvement to the arid region. The torrential rainfall, however, has also led to instances of dangerous flash flooding. Arizona contacts say milk output has tightened as cow comfort is less than optimal amid high heat, humidity, and muddy farm conditions. Flooded roads have caused some delays in milk pick ups, but handlers report that milk deliveries are still coming in.
