Wyoming Hay Summary

Week ending July 10, 2020
Compared to last week all reported hay sold fully steady. Demand 
improved this week across the state with quite a lot of hay moving in the 
western areas. Some hay is going to local cattlemen with other loads 
going out of state. Most areas continue to be dry along with a few fires 
here and there with only trace of rain in some areas. Some reports that 
the irrigation districts across the state have cut some water back or 
will cut it back to help keep their water sheds (ponds) at a manageable 
level if this dry spell last for a long time. Some producers have started 
to on second cutting of alfalfa. Valley video hay auction report from
