Ground/Grinding alfalfa movement: Southwest/South Central
Tonnage: 9,709/5,784 Last week: 7,767/5,533 Last year: 9,487/5,827
Hay market trade, activity and demand is moderate, with an increase in alfalfa
trades. Prices remained generally steady. Alfalfa prices have been variable, due
to the unpredictable weather pattern of this haying season. Prices this week,
however, seemed to settle a bit as hay producers finally had a hot and dry week
to get hay put up. Dairy quality hay remains elusive as it has proven very
difficult to put up without being rained on at least once. DUE TO THE SHORTENED
HOLIDAY WEEK, THERE WILL BE NO REPORT NEXT WEEK, JULY 9. THE NEXT REPORT WILL BE
JULY 16. If you have any extra hay to sell and/or need hay here in Kansas, use
the services of the Internet Hay Exchange: www.hayexchange.com/ks.php.
