Load Count: 60

Compared to last week, all classes of hay and straw sold firm with good demand compared to a very limited test last week. A light load count last week coupled with rainy weather likely influenced the increased demand and buyer attendance at this weeks sale. All prices are considered FOB, although a 10 mile delivery is typically provided.
