Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Quanah. The latest 2025 raster shows 5,293 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 99th percentile among 1,863 analyzed Texas localities and the 62nd percentile nationally. Hardeman County reports 26,392 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 Burns Flat, Oklahoma, 80 miles away with 17,210 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 100% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
