Oklahoma Hay Market Report

THIS REPORT WILL NOT BE ISSUED JULY 6TH. NEXT REPORT JULY 13TH 

Alfalfa trade mostly moderate to active. Grass hay trade mostly moderate. Demand 
for Premium alfalfa moderate to good. Demand mostly moderate for other grades 
and offerings. A limited supply of Supreme and Premium quality alfalfa is making 
locating best quality alfalfa difficult. Grass hay yields are likewise well 
behind average in central and eastern counties. Grass hay demand still generally 
moderate at best. Dry conditions are becoming more pronounced in much of central 
and eastern Oklahoma. Rains are forecast for much of eastern Oklahoma and 
portions of central Oklahoma over the next few days. 

Market News continues to maintain an online hay directory for both in-state
and out-of-state hay producers.  The directories are on the ODAFF homepage
at www.oda.state.ok.us. Producers wishing to list hay are encouraged to call
