Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Pondera Colony. The latest 2025 raster shows 34,778 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 77th percentile among 497 analyzed Montana localities and the 95th percentile nationally. Pondera County reports 16,905 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 Choteau, Montana, 31 miles away with 49,050 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 49.1% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
