Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies non-alfalfa hay around Upton, but it does not measure how much is specifically Brome hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 104,561 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 82nd percentile among 12,240 analyzed Quebec localities and the 76th percentile nationally. Acton, Quebec reports 12,462 acres of reported other hay fodder 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 Saint-Félix-de-Kingsey, Quebec, 26 miles away with 156,397 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 Brome 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.
