Reporter comment USDA
As filedCompared to last Thursday, Good/Premium Alfalfa 5.00 higher, Utility/fair Alfalfa 5.00-20.00 lower. Grass 24.00-36.00 higher. Corn stalks firm. Wheat 25.00 lower. The heavy rains have made it harder to get hay in and out these past few weeks. A lower supply and a large buying crowd was on hand. Trade moderate to active with moderate to good demand.
