Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Stephan. The latest 2025 raster shows 14,435 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 15th percentile among 485 analyzed South Dakota localities and the 80th percentile nationally. Hyde County reports 14,464 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 Colome, South Dakota, 70 miles away with 59,682 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 1.4% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
