Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies non-alfalfa hay around Matthews, but it does not measure how much is specifically Native / Prairie Grass hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 5,222 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 25th percentile among 6,984 analyzed North Carolina localities and the 43rd percentile nationally. Mecklenburg County reports 1,159 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 Mount Croghan, South Carolina, 37 miles away with 15,565 mapped acres. The current drought signal is D0 as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
