Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Leroy. The latest 2025 raster shows 27 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 69th percentile among 1,863 analyzed Texas localities and the 23rd percentile nationally. McLennan County reports 34,371 head of beef cattle 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 Ross, Texas, 5.4 miles away with 28 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 86.1% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.

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 identify Alfalfa Hay in this area. Prices vary by quality, bale format, season, and delivery, so request current supplier quotes for the most relevant pricing.
