Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies barley crop context around Fertile Valley No. 285, but it does not measure how much is specifically Barley hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 32,144 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 58th percentile among 983 analyzed Saskatchewan localities and the 85th percentile nationally. Division No. 12, Saskatchewan reports 214,385 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 Colonsay, Saskatchewan, 70 miles away with 67,164 mapped acres. HayQuotes has not yet stored enough recent marketplace observations here to publish supplier liquidity, so quote requests are the check for bale format, freight, timing, and availability.

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.
