Weekly Montana Hay Report

Compared to last week: Alfalfa hay sold fully steady this week on moderate
to good demand. New hay sales continue to be light as producers are still
delivering hay purchased earlier in the year. While supplies remain light
buyers continue to be able to find supplies as needs arise. Grass hay
continues to sell with good demand as ranchers looking for rounds of
alfalfa are buying grass hay to meet needs. Grass hay sold steady this
week. Straw sold steady this week on very limited sales. Straw supplies
are very light. All prices are dollars per ton and FOB unless otherwise noted.
