Wyoming Hay Summary

Week ending February 01, 2019

   Compared to last week all reported forages sold steady. A lot of the 
hay in the western part of the state has been spoke for or sold and 
producers are waiting for trucks to haul it. Some producers noted this is 
the earliest they have been sold out of hay. Some have made contracts and 
are delivering x amount of tons the next several months through the 
spring. Other producers have been selling some on the hay video auctions 
hoping to expand their cliental for next year’s supply of baled hay.  
Some areas of the WY continue to be dry for this time of year and snow 
pack is lower than past years. This could be troublesome for those who 
depend on the runoff water for irrigation needs on alfalfa, sugar beets, 
corn, pastures and whatever else one will water through the summer. 
All prices are dollars per ton FOB the field or hay barn unless otherwise 
noted.
