Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Murphy. The latest 2025 raster shows 14 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 65th percentile among 1,863 analyzed Texas localities and the 22nd percentile nationally. Collin County reports 34,815 head of 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 Trenton, Texas, 32 miles away with 590 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 15.3% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
