======================================================================

Compared to the last report, demand was good this trading session on 
moderate supplies.
Producers report water districts are limiting water runoff usage as drought 
conditions worsen in some parts of Oregon, which could keep them 
from irrigating later in the summer.
While some producers have access to well water many hope spring rains 
will help keep irrigation districts open later in the season to help 
keep production costs in check.
Hay is getting cut all over Oregon, Eastern Oregon is baled and stored 
and are getting ready for 2nd crop.
Others areas around Oregon are just starting to cut now and a few have 
started baling.
Producers say demand seems to be high already for new crop as buyers 
are going around making offers.
Producers say the hay looks good even though they have had some mornings 
with frost.
According to the U.S.
Drought Monitor, 87% of the state is in a moderate drought or worse, 
54% of the state is in a Severe drought or worse, 16% of the state is 
in an extreme drought.
