California week over week milk production is mixed. Handlers note August 2025 year over year milk production gains are less pronounced than June/July 2025 year over year milk production gains. Some manufacturers note milk intakes are below anticipated volumes, but also convey milk supplies are sufficient. Unplanned downtime for some Central Valley processors caused capacities to tighten. However, decreased milk production for some dairy farmers due to higher temperatures kept milk volumes in check with processing capacities.
Milk production in Arizona is lighter. Handlers note September milk output has notably decreased from August. Spot loads up to $1 below Class are noted.
Farm level milk output in New Mexico is lighter.
In the Pacific Northwest, week over week milk production is mixed. Manufacturers indicate milk volumes are more than adequate and milk intakes are above anticipated volumes in some cases.

Colorado handlers note milk output per cow is strong this year. Manufacturers indicate milk volumes are more than sufficient.
