Compared to last week, Alfalfa and Alfalfa/Grass blends sold weak on a light test this and last week. Grass hay blends sold unevenly steady on limited comparable sales. Straw and Corn Fodder sold firm. Overall, buyer attendance, supply, and demand was light to moderate. Light attendance is due to farmers taking advantage of good weather for field working days. All prices are considered FOB, although a local 10 mile delivery is typically provided.
