Rock Valley Hay Auction (Thur) - Rock Valley, IA
 
Released on September 26, 2025
 
Compared to last Thursday, Alfalfa and Grass market was lower. The hay quality 
was also a factor in the lower market. The buyer crowd was smaller today as 
most people are busy in the field currently. Trade slow to moderate with light 
to moderate demand.
