Missouri Weekly Hay Summary Snow and cold temperatures covered much of the state this week. Travel conditions became very hazardous in the southern 1/3 of the state.

The supply of hay is moderate to heavy and demand is light. Prices are steady. The Missouri Department of Agriculture has a hay directory available for both buyers and sellers.
