Post forecasts milk production to decrease by 8 percent in CY 2016 caused by the severe drought faced by the country in 2015/2016. In addition, the dairy industry decided to reduce investments because of the risk due to the lack of the water supply. This scenario resulted in lower domestic milk production, which affected retail prices and milk availability in the market. Lower domestic milk supply forced the country to increase dairy imports. From January to September 2016, purchases of dairy products in general including dairy ingredients from abroad, reached 201,507 MT, nearly 74 percent above from the same period in 2015.
