Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA crop mapping directly identifies alfalfa around Amherst. The latest 2025 raster shows 388 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 47th percentile among 700 analyzed Virginia localities and the 35th percentile nationally. Amherst County reports 1,152 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 Churchville, Virginia, 45 miles away with 4,562 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 61.8% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
