Local interpretation

What the local hay data shows

USDA mapping identifies non-alfalfa hay around Alcester, but it does not measure how much is specifically Timothy hay. The latest 2025 raster shows 6,532 mapped acres within 25 miles, placing the market in the 16th percentile among 4,365 analyzed South Dakota localities and the 52nd percentile nationally. Union County reports 968 acres of reported other hay acreage 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 Steen, Minnesota, 38 miles away with 20,720 mapped acres. The current drought signal is 15.1% as of 2026-09-01, which can affect how quickly buyers should confirm quality and freight.
