Missouri Weekly Hay Summary

Week ending 12/20/19

***This report with not be published on Thu. Dec. 26, 2019 due to the Christmas holiday. The next publish date will be Thu. Jan. 2, 2020. ***

Winter weather covered the state this week. This encouraged a bit more 
feeding but limited what little movement might have been planned. As has 
been the case most of this fall nothing last long and a big warm up is 
forecast which will have cattle and producers in the mud once again 
before Christmas. Unlike several other states to the east and north 
Missouri is fairing much better on hay supplies as the feeding season and 
the official start to winter arrive. The supply of hay is moderate to 
heavy, demand is light to moderate and prices are steady. The Missouri 
Department of Agriculture has a hay directory available for both buyers 
and sellers. To be listed, or to view the directory visit
