Idaho Weekly Hay Report

Tons:  4100    Last Week:  2400    Last Year:  3700 

   Compared to last Friday, Alfalfa old crop Premium steady. No new 
contracts for new crop reported this week. Trade slow with good demand 
especially for export and stable hay going to eastern interests. Rain and 
even hail showers keep producers on the sidelines with no relief from the 
rain in the future for new crop harvest. Lots of hay down that has been rain 
damaged. Retail/Feedstore steady.   Prices are dollars per ton and FOB the 
farm or ranch unless otherwise stated.
