Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Virginia City. The latest 2025 raster shows 25,719 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 65th percentile among 497 analyzed Montana localities and the 90th percentile nationally. Madison County reports 43,645 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 Hamer, Idaho, 96 miles away with 107,846 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 100% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
