What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around New Hartford Center. The latest 2025 raster shows 827 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 61st percentile among 215 analyzed Connecticut localities and the 40th percentile nationally.

The sourcing graph points to nearby alternatives such as Taconic Shores, New York, 34 miles away with 4,290 mapped acres. The current drought signal is D0 as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
