Oklahoma Hay Market Report

Alfalfa and hay trade movement was at a standstill again this week, trade
remains steady.  Most of the Alfalfa quoted at the top of the price
ranges, had to be flawless.  Heavy rainfall fell across the trade area last
week and has hampered hay trade and movement.  Producers are about a month
way from new crop hay and hoping markets will have come back to some sort
of normalcy.  Warmer weather is expected this week.  


Market News continues to maintain an online hay directory for both in-
state and out-of-state hay producers.  The directories are on the ODAFF 
homepage at www.oda.state.ok.us. Producers wishing to list hay are 
encouraged to call at 1-405-521-3864 or emailOklahomaCity.LPGMN@usda.gov.
