Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies non-alfalfa hay around Essex, but it does not measure how much is specifically Fescue hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 7,444 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 66th percentile among 13,149 analyzed Illinois localities and the 59th percentile nationally. Kankakee County reports 539 acres of reported other hay 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 Verona, Illinois, 16 miles away with 9,391 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.
