Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies alfalfa and non-alfalfa hay context around Appleby, but it does not measure how much is specifically Grass / Alfalfa Mix hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 2,083 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 28th percentile among 1,863 analyzed Texas localities and the 16th percentile nationally. Nacogdoches County reports 21,995 head of beef cattle 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 Neches, Texas, 53 miles away with 4,839 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 30% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
