Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Staples. The latest 2025 raster shows 28,892 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 80th percentile among 916 analyzed Minnesota localities and the 92nd percentile nationally. Wadena County reports 7,832 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, 50 miles away with 66,378 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 78.3% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
