LOAD COUNT: 58 Loads Hay | 8 Loads Straw | 2 Loads Corn Fodder

Compared to last Monday's sale, supplies were lighter due to some light rain discouraging some consignors. Hay sold mostly 10.00-15.00 higher with exception of meadow grass hay trading 15.00-20.00 lower than the previous week. Demand was moderate. Straw sold 25.00 lower. Corn Fodder was steady. All prices per ton unless otherwise noted.
