카자흐스탄 크림 치즈 수입 시장 (6월, 2022)

U.S. dairy product exports, led by cheese, saw a significant increase in April, setting a new record with a 22% rise from the previous year to $845.6 million. This growth is part of a larger trend, with year-to-date fiscal year 2022 exports reaching $4.8 billion, up 22% from the same period in the previous year. Cheese exports, in particular, hit a record high, with over 40,000 metric tons shipped in both March and April. Despite this, exports of dairy replacement heifers continue to struggle due to high costs and geopolitical issues, with the smallest number exported since 2016. Hay exports were strong in April, with a notable increase in other hay shipments. However, concerns about old-crop hay and weakening buyer exchange rates could impact U.S. suppliers. Additionally, the ongoing dispute over Canada's dairy tariff rate quotas and the U.S. Trade Representative's announcement of a second consultation under the USMCA highlight ongoing challenges in the dairy export market.
