Local interpretation
What the local hay data shows
USDA mapping identifies alfalfa and non-alfalfa hay context around French River / Rivière des Français, but it does not measure how much is specifically Grass / Alfalfa Mix hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 25,017 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 38th percentile among 542 analyzed Ontario localities and the 40th percentile nationally. Sudbury, Ontario reports 13,058 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 South Bruce Peninsula, Ontario, 97 miles away with 89,575 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 Grass / Alfalfa Mix 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.
