Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies alfalfa and non-alfalfa hay context around Muniz, but it does not measure how much is specifically Grass / Alfalfa Mix hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 13,782 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 93rd percentile among 1,863 analyzed Texas localities and the 59th percentile nationally. Hidalgo County reports 17,701 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 Palm Valley, Texas, 21 miles away with 18,312 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 40% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
