What the local hay data shows
USDA mapping identifies non-alfalfa hay around Elgin, but it does not measure how much is specifically Fescue hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 5,624 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 50th percentile among 5,337 analyzed Nebraska localities and the 46th percentile nationally. Antelope County reports 7,236 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 Woodland Park, Nebraska, 38 miles away with 14,197 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 81% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
What the evidence says now
The 25-mile mapped non-alfalfa hay footprint ranks at the 50th percentile among analyzed Nebraska localities.
