U.S. invests $8 billion to expand dairy processing, facing rising prices and storage challenges.

In 2025, a $8 billion investment in U.S. dairy processing plants is set to increase capacity significantly, despite concerns over storage. The U.S. dairy herd grew to 9.328 million in August 2024, with milk prices expected to rise by 8%. The U.S. is a major dairy exporter, especially to Mexico, and is set to benefit as EU and New Zealand's dairy growth faces constraints. Farmers will also have input on USDA amendments to milk marketing orders.
