Compared to last week, Alfalfa/Grass blends sold mostly firm, with no comparison for Alfalfa due to limited sales. Large bales of Grass hay sold weak, with small bales of Grass hay selling firm. Large and small bales of straw sold steady to 15.00 lower. Buyer attendance was moderate to heavy, with moderate supply and demand overall. All prices are considered FOB, although a local 10 mile delivery is typically provided.
