Reporter comment USDA
As filedLOAD COUNT: 42 Loads Hay | 11 Loads Straw | 5 Loads Corn Fodder
Compared to the prior sale, hay sold mostly 10.00-30.00/ton lower. Straw and corn fodder too lightly tested the prior week to develop a trend. Demand moderate on a moderate supply. All prices per ton unless otherwise noted.
