US total cheese production during 2009 was a record-high 10.105 bil. lbs., up 1.7%, or 170.3 mil. lbs., from 2008, and the first time ever that US cheese output topped the 10-billionpound mark. Last year marked the 18th straight year that US cheese production set a new record high. The last time cheese output actually declined and didn’t set a record was in 1991.
