Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies sorghum crop context around Virginia City, but it does not measure how much is specifically Sorghum-Sudan / Sudan Grass hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 0 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 91st percentile among 138 analyzed Nevada localities and the 17th percentile nationally. 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 Fallon, Nevada, 48 miles away with 1,132 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 100% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
