Nebraska Hay Summary

Week Ending April 06, 2018

  Compared to last week, alfalfa and grass hay, ground and delivered hay sold 
steady. Dehy pellets sold steady to 10.00 higher. Demand was good to very good. 
Contacts continue to receive a lot of calls from prospective buyers. Weather 
forecasts indicate a possibility of frozen precipitation for the coming weekend. 
Some areas are expecting 2 to 5 inches of snow on Friday, hopefully giving the
