The CPI for dairy was 128 (2020=100), down slightly from December 2023 but up slightly from November 2023, with prices varying by product. The PPI for dairy was 124, up slightly from November 2023 but down 5% from January 2023, reflecting high prices compared to previous years. The ex-farm price index was 128, up 5% from November 2023 but 31% lower than the record high in November-December 2022. Milk supply in January 2024 was lower than in January 2023 but higher than in January 2022. The dairy price increases in 2022 were largely due to market disruptions from the war in Ukraine and international sanctions against Russia and Belarus, following similar disruptions during the corona pandemic in 2020-2021.
