Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies non-alfalfa hay around Los Alamos, but it does not measure how much is specifically Ryegrass hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 2,312 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 83rd percentile among 4,752 analyzed New Mexico localities and the 23rd percentile nationally. Los Alamos County reports 8 head of equine 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 Youngsville, New Mexico, 26 miles away with 6,125 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 100% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
