Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Gildford Colony. The latest 2025 raster shows 6,576 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 13th percentile among 497 analyzed Montana localities and the 65th percentile nationally. Hill County reports 11,822 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 Denton, Montana, 104 miles away with 75,766 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 50.4% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
