Wyoming Hay Summary

Week ending Nov 08, 2019

   Compared to last alfalfa on the eastern side of the state sold steady 
to 5.00 higher. Other reporting areas traded steady on the week. Demand 
was moderate for local sales with good demand noted on hay leaving the 
state. Some farmers have had problems with sugar beet harvest this fall 
as temps dropped below freezing causing damage to the beet. Farmers 
continue to pick corn with some reports test weights are lower than the 
standard 56 lbs per bushel. Few, hay producers are waiting for their 
final cutting of alfalfa to dry out so they can bale it. Note: “All 
prices are dollars per ton FOB the field or hay barn unless otherwise 
noted.”
