Today the market is backing off in all categories except cornstalks. The good weather has allowed more hay to come in. The crowd was watching closely but not very active.

Rock Valley Hay Report
Thursday January 19, 2023
40 Loads
___________________________________________________
The hay market was weaker today with a smaller than normal buying crowd. Due primarily to recent snowfall. Straw was steady and cornstalks were stronger.
As many have heard, we suffered a major fire of our office and shop. Please bear with us as we are making headway with a construction office trailer in place and operating now. All auctions will continue on Monday & Thursday at 12:30.
