Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Cold Spring. The latest 2025 raster shows 50,560 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 92nd percentile among 916 analyzed Minnesota localities and the 98th percentile nationally. Stearns County reports 44,601 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 Freeport, Minnesota, 19 miles away with 66,378 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 2% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
