Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies sorghum crop context around Lackland AFB, but it does not measure how much is specifically Sorghum-Sudan / Sudan Grass hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 14,344 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 65th percentile among 1,863 analyzed Texas localities and the 95th percentile nationally. Bexar County reports 31,702 head of 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 D'Hanis, Texas, 39 miles away with 37,532 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 32.1% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
