Missouri Weekly Hay Summary 12/14/18 A bit milder weather this week as temperatures rose to more comfortable levels. Mud is however still an issue in many places and making feeding difficult. There continues to be some looming concerns about hay supplies, especially given that feeding levels were more than normal most of November and these are valid concerns in many local areas. Overall though even with lower supplies nationwide there is still hay that can be found but many are not thrilled about prices or distance to get it. The supply of hay light to moderate. Hay prices are steady. Hay demand is moderate to good.The Missouri Department of Agriculture has a hay directory available for both buyers and sellers.
