Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Rosedale. The latest 2025 raster shows 2,293 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 60th percentile among 536 analyzed Maryland localities and the 51st 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 Pylesville, Maryland, 26 miles away with 11,762 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 35.9% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
