Dairy poised for export gains
Despite all the challenges facing dairy last year, 2020 was a good year for U.S. dairy exports. And there’s reason for continued growth now and in the future, as the United States is well-positioned to be competitive in key markets.

Global milk solids exports in 2019 totaled 9.400 million metric tons (MT); in 2020, they had grown nearly 400 million MT, to 9.793 million MT. The United States captured a sizeable portion of that trade, with total U.S. exports reaching over 2 million MT and growing 12% over 2019.
