Weekly Texas Hay Report

Market News

Amarillo, TX Fri Aug 27 2010 USDA-TX Dept of Ag Market News

Weekly Texas Hay Report

Compared to last week: Hay prices generally steady. Trade and demand moderate to good. Temperatures dropped this week providing a break from the 100 degree plus temperatures that most areas throughout the state were experiencing.
The cooler temperatures allowed for an increased movement of hay in areas. A larger portion of the state is reporting dry conditions, mostly in East and
Central Texas, and livestock producers are beginning to supplement feed and build hay inventories heading into fall. High quality horse and dairy type alfalfa continues to be in short supply with good demand. There continues to be large volumes of rain damaged hay on the market. Prices for hay and pellets quoted per ton except where noted.

The state of Texas Department of Agriculture has the Hay and Grazing Hot Line set up for buyers and sellers; the number is 1-877-429-1998. The web site for TDA is www.tda.state.tx.us.
