Local interpretation
What the local hay data shows
USDA mapping identifies non-alfalfa hay around Lac-Despinassy, but it does not measure how much is specifically Timothy hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 13,213 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 15th percentile among 12,240 analyzed Quebec localities and the 33rd percentile nationally. Abitibi, Quebec reports 20,829 acres of reported other hay fodder acreage in 2021, 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 Macamic, Quebec, 70 miles away with 115,328 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 60 0-100 as of 2026-07-31, 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.
Public agricultural records show relevant hay and forage activity in this area. Local Timothy Hay availability should be confirmed with suppliers. Prices vary by quality, bale format, season, and delivery, so request current supplier quotes for the most relevant pricing.
