Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies non-alfalfa hay around Ruthven, but it does not measure how much is specifically Fescue hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 7,755 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 27th percentile among 9,234 analyzed Iowa localities and the 60th percentile nationally. Palo Alto County reports 906 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 Aurelia, Iowa, 40 miles away with 16,809 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 100% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
