Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies barley crop context around Cremona, but it does not measure how much is specifically Barley hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 164,770 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 86th percentile among 419 analyzed Alberta localities and the 99th percentile nationally. Division No. 6, Alberta reports 353,571 acres of reported barley crop acreage in 2021, 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 Bowden, Alberta, 33 miles away with 291,073 mapped acres. The current drought signal is D0 as of 2026-07-31, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.

Evidence definitions and data confidence

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 show relevant hay and forage activity in this area. Local Barley Hay availability should be confirmed with suppliers. Prices vary by quality, bale format, season, and delivery, so request current supplier quotes for the most relevant pricing.
