Weekly Texas Hay Report

   Compared to last report:  All hay classes traded fully steady on 
moderate to good movement.  The panhandle was busy preparing for the 
winter storm predicted going in the weekend.  Livestock owners continued 
to buy or contract hay as it becomes available to stock up for the colder 
months ahead.  Prices for hay and pellets quoted per ton except where 
noted. 

   The Texas Department of Agriculture has Hay and Grazing phone set 
up for Buyers and sellers looking for hay or grazing; the number is 1-
