Hay market trade slow and demand light. Alfalfa price firmed up a bit likely
due to the pressure of the worsening drought. According to the U.S. Drought
Monitor, there were some reduction in drought coverage in areas receiving the
heaviest precipitation, most notably central Kansas where many areas received
2-6 inches of rainfall. Abnormal dryness (D0) decreased to 31 pct, moderate
drought (D1) decreased to 18 pct, severe drought (D2) decreased to 5 pct and
extreme drought (D3) remained steady at 5 pct. If you have any extra hay to sell
