Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Merlin. The latest 2025 raster shows 113 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 31st percentile among 426 analyzed Oregon localities and the 28th percentile nationally. Josephine County reports 405 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 Falcon Heights, Oregon, 90 miles away with 69,617 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 100% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
