Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Canton. The latest 2025 raster shows 23,265 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 36th percentile among 485 analyzed South Dakota localities and the 89th percentile nationally. Lincoln County reports 4,449 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 Mission Hill, South Dakota, 44 miles away with 51,068 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 100% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
