Missouri Direct Hay Report
Released on March 05, 2026
Areas to the south got some pre-spring pond filling rains over the last
few days.
Much of the rest of the state also received rain but not in the amounts
as the south.
Mud is fairly common out feeding now though as temperatures are staying
above freezing over nights.
Fertilizer and fuel prices saw jumps this week due to conflict in the
middle east.
Luckly prepaying has become common practice for many producers especially
those planning to plant corn as prices typically always see an increase
as spring arrives.
The hope now is that the delivery lines remain efficient.
Hay Prices continue to be mostly steady there are many new listings of
hay being offered as producers try to clean out inventory before the
new growing season.
Supply is moderate to heavy, and demand is moderate to light.
