Oregon Weekly Hay Report

    Compared to Jun 15:  Prices trended generally lower in an extremely
limited test compared to last crop year prices.  Retail/Stable type hay 
remains the most demanded hay.  Some hay growers have cut 2018 hay and 
a few are selling now.  Recent rains in the growing areas has slowed sales 
as those who hadn't baled are waiting for hay in the field to dry and 
those who had baled now have rain damaged hay. All sales in this report 
are new 2018 crop year hay, unless noted by Old Crop.
