Week ending 8/30/19
Very fall like temperatures and abundant moistures this week should help
to keep pastures growing and allow some stockpiling of grass prior to the
arrival of frost. Moisture was actually quite heavy, perhaps even
excessive in some areas. Hay movement has slowed some as many have
acquired at least enough hay to start the feeding season. Most producers
have fence rows and barns back to capacity. The Hay supplies are
moderate, demand is moderate. Hay prices are steady to weak. The
Missouri Department of Agriculture has a hay directory available for
both buyers and sellers. To be listed, or to view the directory visit
http://mda.mo.gov/abd/haydirectory/ for listings of hay
