USDA Texas Hay 04/18 11:00
AMS_2707
Texas Direct Hay Report
Released on April 18, 2025
Compared to the last report: Hay prices are mostly steady to firm across
all regions.
Recent rains in portions of the Panhandle, North, South and East have
been welcome but brought on the cool season weeds.
Hay supplies have tightened up and first cutting is still a few weeks
away in the South and at least a month or more out in other regions.
Drought conditions have worsened in the West and Southwest.
According to the US Drought Monitor, severe drought expanded in a small
area between San Antonio and Houston where streamflow and soil moisture
decreased and short-term precipitation deficits grew.
Exceptional drought grew in coverage from near Eagle Pass to northwest
of Del Rio in southern Texas, where short- and long-term precipitation
deficits worsened, soil moisture and groundwater levels worsened, and
reservoir levels were at or near record-low levels.
Stage 3 restrictions were in effect for the San Antonio Water System,
and Stage 4 restrictions were present for farmers and pumpers operating
in the Edwards Aquifer.
***Due to limited sales and price changes
this report will be released bi-weekly until more volumes of hay is
moving.***
*** The next report release will be released May 2nd, 2025.
