Oklahoma Hay Market Report

Alfalfa trade moderate. Movement was slow to moderate with heavy rains across 
the state hindering hauling. Demand was fairly good for all alfalfa and good 
quality grass hay. Fourth cutting is nearly completed and supplies and 
offerings remain light. Prices were fully steady. Wheat planting was 60 
percent completed, up nearly 20 percent from last week and 4 percent ahead of 
average. Moderate to heavy rains across the state this week will result in 
some wheat acres needing to be replanted. At this time it is unclear how many 
acres were affected.
