Extreme temperature swings continue to be highlight of this feeding season seems Mother Nature just doesn’t know what season it really is. Hay movement remains quite light. At this point it appears many producers are likely to have a fair amount of carry over once feeding season is complete. The supply of hay is heavy, demand is light and prices are 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/ 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 price listed as round bales based generally on 5x6 bales with weights of approximately 1200-1500 lbs).
