Rock Valley Hay Auction (Thur) - Rock Valley, IA
Released on August 08, 2025
Compared to last Thursday, all grades of hay weak. Quality was an issue today
again. Some hay was carrying extra moisture or was not attractive to the
buyers. Buyers appear to be waiting for better quality which hopefully will
come. Trade slow to moderate with light to moderate demand.
