Missouri Direct Hay Report
Released on January 22, 2026
All attention this week has turned to the weather and possibility of
major winter storm over the weekend.
Producers are doing what they can to prepare even if forecast end up
being wrong about snow, extreme cold is almost certain.
Hay supplies remain heavy and out weight demand at the current time.
Hay prices are mostly steady.
Much of the hay surplus is average to lower quality hay with much of
it requiring some additional supplement in order to provide as adequate
feed ration.
Legit high quality hay as typical for mid-winter has held value much
better and is a bit harder but not impossible to find.
