   Compared to Sep 8:  Prices trended generally steady.  All prices 
reported today are 2017 crop, unless otherwise noted.  Sporadic rain 
showers and thunderstorms in hay growing areas have increased rain damaged
hay availability.  Fires and smoke throughout the state have slowed 
movement of hay due to highway closures and fire mitigation.  
Retail/Stable type hay remains the largest demanded hay.  The export
market demand has increased as compared to prior reports.
All prices are in dollars per ton and FOB unless otherwise stated.
