Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Elmo. The latest 2025 raster shows 26,886 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 66th percentile among 497 analyzed Montana localities and the 91st percentile nationally. Lake County reports 35,879 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 Charlo, Montana, 28 miles away with 34,942 mapped acres. The current drought signal is D0 as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
