Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies oats crop context around DISH, but it does not measure how much is specifically Oat hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 2,211 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 77th percentile among 1,863 analyzed Texas localities and the 78th percentile nationally. Denton County reports 17,659 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 Road Runner, Texas, 28 miles away with 8,162 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 87.4% as of 2026-09-01, 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 Oat 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.
