Wyoming Hay Summary

Week ending March 23, 2018

  Compared to last week alfalfa and grass hay sold steady. Sun-cured 
alfalfa pellets and alfalfa cubes sold steady.  Demand was good. 
Producers selling big squares are struggling to find trucks to haul to 
out of state customers. Some of the small square bales are loaded into 
dry van trailers to make their way out of state which is easier to 
transport, no tarps or straps to worry about. Some ranchers continue to 
search for additional hay to buy.  All prices are dollars per ton FOB the 
field or hay barn unless otherwise noted. Prices are from the most recent 
reported sales.
