Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Lorenzo. The latest 2025 raster shows 133 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 75th percentile among 1,863 analyzed Texas localities and the 29th percentile nationally. Crosby County reports 6,125 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 Causey, New Mexico, 92 miles away with 3,792 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 99.8% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
