Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Waterloo. The latest 2025 raster shows 4,352 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 27th percentile among 1,461 analyzed Illinois localities and the 59th percentile nationally. Monroe County reports 2,249 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 Mascoutah, Illinois, 23 miles away with 9,589 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.
