Reporter comment USDA
As filedCompared to last week, small squares of comparable hays sold mostly higher, because good quality hays last week were in the lower end of the good grade and in the higher end this week. Large packages of hay traded steady to slightly higher. No straw offered the past few weeks for a price comparison to the straw offering this week. Trade was active with good demand on a light offering.
