Today we had mostly good alfalfa, primarily good grinding alfalfa. Not as much grass in with good quality. The demand was strong for grass and very weak for alfalfa.

Today the market was weaker with heavier volume. Large number of buyers as the fields were too wet to plant. The quality was generally pretty good in the alfalfa category. The grass quality was mostly average.

Today the alfalfa market was mostly steady with good quality. The market on grass was generally weaker and mostly average quality. The bedding market remains very weak. Many farmers were busy planting corn as they’re trying to beat the forecasted rain for tonight & tomorrow. REMINDER: 4/29 will be our last Monday sale for the season, after that we will only conduct Thursday auctions. Thank you all for making this a great winter season!
