Iowa Hay Summary

Week Ending  May 03, 2019
Forages and straw were a little tougher to come by this week.  Prices appeared
to be a little higher, but the quality also was a little poorer.  Straight 
alfalfa was limited in availability.  Buyers are continuing to hunt for better 
quality hay and appear to be willing to pay for it as pastures are slow to rebound
after this past winter.
