Oklahoma Hay Market Report

Alfalfa and hay trade movement was light to moderate this week.  Demand 
remains good as a much more warmer winter has been hampering the need 
for those that are starting to get get short this time of year. A 
steady undertone was noted on limited to light comparable trades.  
Many areas in the Eastern region of the state are predicting to get
cooler temperatures over the weekend, however temperatures are to be in the 
50's and are expected to continue into next week.  All hay reported 
FOB Oklahoma unless otherwise noted.
