Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies non-alfalfa hay around Wells, but it does not measure how much is specifically Timothy hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 748 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 27th percentile among 11,637 analyzed New York localities and the 12th 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 Ames, New York, 41 miles away with 24,066 mapped acres. The current drought signal is D0 as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
