Oregon Weekly Hay Report   


   Compared to July 14:  Prices trended generally steady.  All prices
reported today are new crop, unless otherwise noted.  Most producers
are done with first cutting and working on second cutting. Some recent
and upcoming thunderstorms in some of the growing areas has resulted in
lower quality and lower priced hay, as producers were caught off guard
and were unable to get the hay out of the field before the rains came.
Retail/Stable type hay remains the largest demanded hay.
All prices are in dollars per ton and FOB unless otherwise stated.
