Local interpretation
What the local hay data shows
USDA mapping identifies pasture / forage around Saint John, but it does not measure how much is specifically Alfalfa hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 8,471 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 28th percentile among 1,090 analyzed New Brunswick localities and the 29th percentile nationally. 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 Dieppe, New Brunswick, 90 miles away with 88,872 mapped acres. HayQuotes has not yet stored enough recent marketplace observations here to publish supplier liquidity, so quote requests are the check for bale format, freight, timing, and availability.

Evidence definitions and data confidence
EXACT identifies this hay type directly. FAMILY is broader family or supporting-crop evidence. GENERAL is context only. Public price observations are treated as confidence signals, not mandatory evidence.
Public agricultural records show relevant hay and forage activity in this area. Local Alfalfa Hay availability should be confirmed with suppliers. Prices vary by quality, bale format, season, and delivery, so request current supplier quotes for the most relevant pricing.
