Cooler weather and some much needed rain have led too much less of the
state showing up in the latest drought monitor. Some areas are still in need
of moisture. Adding insult to injury some reports from the southern areas of
the state reported the presence of army worms showing up. Hay movement is
light, supplies are moderate, demand is light and prices are steady. The
Missouri Department of Agriculture has a hay directory available for both
buyers and sellers. To be listed, or for a directory visit
