Chile: Dairy and Products Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Overall dairy exports to Chile were up by 24% in the first eight months of CY 2015, when local producer prices were lower and are expected to maintain similar levels for CY2016. In addition, the market share for U.S. dairy products in Chile increased to 23%, positioning the U.S. as Chile’s second largest supplier after New Zealand during the same period. Chile’s milk production has shown nearly a 7% decrease in the first eight months of CY2015 compared to the same period in CY 2014, due droughts in early January-April. These severe droughts resulted in less pasture for animals to graze on, causing lower production.
