Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Sheldon. The latest 2025 raster shows 14,445 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 50th percentile among 406 analyzed North Dakota localities and the 80th percentile nationally. Ransom County reports 13,225 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 Barnesville, Minnesota, 51 miles away with 21,673 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 96.4% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
