Week Ending April 21, 2017 Compared to last week alfalfa, grass hay, ground and delivered hay and dehy alfalfa pellets sold steady. Demand was light to moderate, just depending on where one is located within the state. Many producers have opted not to move 2016 hay at current price levels. But, one wonders where the producers might pile there 2017 hay as many hay yards, barns and sheds remain partially full. New seeding of alfalfa is underway and corn planting has started in many areas. Spotty rain showers along with some hail has been noted in the last week. All sales are dollars per ton FOB the field or hay barn, unless otherwise noted. Eastern/Central Nebraska Alfalfa: Supreme large square bales 155.00, Premium large square bales 130.00-135.00.
