Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies sorghum crop context around Volente, but it does not measure how much is specifically Sorghum-Sudan / Sudan Grass hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 2,968 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 29th percentile among 1,863 analyzed Texas localities and the 81st percentile nationally. Travis County reports 23,331 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 Granger, Texas, 34 miles away with 21,013 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 10.4% 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.
