Butter / LIV.BUTR

EU butter, the most volatile dairy product. Milk-fat demand and herd size set the price. At the latest reading, Butter prints a spot of €7,250/t — a move of ▲0.50% over the past twenty-four hours and ▲5.20% across the trailing thirty days.

The v3.2 stress index places LIV.BUTR at 0.58 — a watch reading on a composite that blends price momentum, inventory cover, supplier concentration and geopolitical exposure. The metric is recomputed on every ingestion cycle, and the weekly delta is the line worth tracking rather than the absolute level.
