Wyoming Hay Summary

Week ending January 25, 2019

   Compared to last week all reported forages sold steady. Some 
producers’ area either out of hay or getting very short on hay to sell 
especially on the better testing hay. Resent video hay auctions may clean 
up some of the volume of squares left to sell across the state. Valley 
video hay auction has a sale today (01/24) and the results will be out on 
Friday and can be viewed at 
https://www.ams.usda.gov/mnreports/to_gr325.txt   Light snow across some 
areas of the state along with a blustery winds the last few days has 
required ranchers to supplement cattle with feed. More seasonal 
temperatures are on the way and hopefully will help keep feeding to a 
minimum.  All prices are dollars per ton FOB the field or hay barn unless 
otherwise noted.
