Oklahoma Hay Market Report

Alfalfa trade was mostly moderate. Movement moderate to fairly active from 
both in-state and out-of-state sources. Demand was moderate to good. Dairy 
demand has increased over the past week but few new sales were reported. 
Alfalfa steady to firm. Grass hay trading was fairly active on good demand 
and light to moderate offerings. Severe cold along with some ice and rain 
moved into the state once again increasing supplemental feeding and 
diminishing supplies.

and out-of-state hay producers.  The directories are on the ODAFF homepage
