Compared to last week most bales of alfalfa and grass hay sold steady. Dehy and sun-cured alfalfa pellets steady. Ground and delivered hay in the Platte Valley steady to 5.00 lower and in the western side of the state sold 10.00 lower. Overall, demand is light for old crop and new crop hay alike but usually is this time of year. Feedlots and farmers are busy with silage and wet corn harvest. With some early soybeans and dryland corn coming to the bins. Alfalfa producers are finishing up on fourth cutting in the East with other areas are on third cutting and some may take a fourth cutting if mother nature allows it. Very spotty rain showers this week with some decent predictions for rain this weekend.
