What the local hay data shows
USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Lithonia. The latest 2025 raster shows 2 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 50th percentile among 676 analyzed Georgia localities and the 18th percentile nationally. No compatible public price benchmark is stored for this market, so the page does not invent pricing. The sourcing graph points to nearby alternatives such as Braselton, Georgia, 32 miles away with 103 mapped acres. The current drought signal is D0 as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
