With heavy snows in the Northwest portion of the state a week ago and moderate snowfall in the Southeast this week some hay and grass supplies were tested for the first time this winter. Neither event was longlived enough to pressure the market and spur buying. Hay supplies within the state are light and the demand is light with prices steady. The Missouri Department of Agriculture has a hay directory available for both buyers and sellers. To be listed, or for a directory visit http:// mda.mo.gov/abd/haydirectory/ or for current listings of hay http:// agebb.missouri.edu/haylst/ (All prices f.o.b. and per ton unless specified and on most recent reported sales prices listed as round bales based generally on 5x6 bales with weights of approximately 1200-1500 lbs).
