Compared to two weeks ago, alfalfa hay sold fully steady, grass or meadow
hay trading 5.00 higher.
Spot load of old crop dehy pellets 20.00 higher, sun-cured pellets steady.
Ground and delivered hay steady.
Demand has improved in the last two weeks with most contacts stating
phones have been busy with producers looking for hay to buy.
Several livestock owners remember the 200.00 plus per ton of hay a couple
years ago and are willing buyers at today's price levels.
Will the price go up this growing season and how high it will get is
the million-dollar question.
Standing hay price for first cutting 2025 is starting out at 50.00 per ton.
All sales FOB the stack or hay yard unless otherwise noted.
