Compared to the last report, Movement is lower and producers are saying
it has been slower than normal with even the demand for small bales
being slow.
No new buyers seem to be looking around for hay at the moment.
There hasn't been winter weather roll in yet so cattle are still grazing
and small bale buyers have stocked up for a while.
There is hope that when winter storms roll in demand will pick up.
According to the U.S.
Drought Monitor, moderate to severe drought indicated in the north sections
of Oregon where the south and central areas are being labelled
as having abnormally dry to no drought indication.
