     Compared last Friday, dosmetic and export Alfalfa steady in a light test. 
Trade remains very slow this week except for retail hay which was very active. 
Demand remains light to moderate except for retail hay where demand remains very 
good. Limited trading was noted on new crop this week with sales on no test rain 
or shine straight thru. Some 2020 new crop Alfalfa was reported in the windrows 
this week in the southern part of the trade area. Thunderstorms over the trade 
area this last week has delayed some marketing. All prices are dollars per ton
