I apologize for not having this information current. The haying season has been a little aggravating for most producers, with wet conditions early and high humidity June and July made it tough to get stuff dry. Then when it was dry and ready to bale, it was all bleached out!! Little smaller Auction this past week especially on small squares. This could be due to the weather on Auction day was calling for chances of rain, and the fact that the conditions to get hay good and dry to small square bale it has been tough. I feel if you have been fortunate enough to get small bales made dry and with good color they may fetch a premium later this year. Very limited offering on Big Squares this Auction with onlu 20 bales consigned they sold for $75 a bale. The limited quantity is likely due to the chances of rain on auction day, but also getting hay dry enough to made big squares that will keep has been next to impossible. Big Rounds continue to be soft and in most cases selling for the cost of making the hay. We sold 276 big rounds this auction and I Ithink the highest priced bales brought $47.50 a bale on 2024 3rd cutting stored inside!! Everything else basically sold for $35.00-$45.00 a bale. Want to remind people the prices we report sometimes have a wide range, this is reflecting bales size and quality. We sometimes see a wide variation in bale sizes. Generally speaking our round bales are usually 5x5 rounds with an average weight of around 1200 lbs. Most of the big squares we sell or 3x3's and are usually 6-7' feet long (650-700 lbs)
