Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Sycamore. The latest 2025 raster shows 9,379 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 79th percentile among 1,461 analyzed Illinois localities and the 72nd percentile nationally. DeKalb County reports 2,766 acres of reported alfalfa acreage in 2022, giving HayQuotes regional production context without treating that published geography as live city inventory. 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 Chemung, Illinois, 29 miles away with 21,181 mapped acres. HayQuotes has not yet stored enough recent marketplace observations here to publish supplier liquidity, so quote requests are the check for bale format, freight, timing, and availability.
