Special Note:
FEED YARD REPORT\nSOUTHWEST: The average paid by feedlots on April 1
for alfalfa ground and delivered was $211.47, down $17.01 from the previous
month, usage was 626T/day, up 6 % from last month and total usage was
19,407T.\nSOUTH CENTRAL: The average paid by feedlots on April 1 for alfalfa
ground and delivered was $201.29, down $5.22 from the previous month, usage was
224T/day, up 4 % from last month and total usage was 6,947T.
Compared to the last report, demand remains low to moderate for all hay
and prices are soft for all regions.
There still seems to be no interest in buying and no new crop pricing
has been reported.
The word "drought" is on many producers' minds and lips, as warm, dry,
and windy weather has dominated.
Some regions report a blue tinge to the wheat and the alfalfa fields
are exhibiting some stress.
According to the U.S.
Drought Monitor for April 9th, A strengthening low pressure system on
April 6 and 7 brought high winds to the Great Plains which dried out
topsoil especially across Kansas and southeastern Colorado.
The categorical percent area for abnormally dry conditions (D0) increased
to 52%, moderate drought (D1) remained near 27%, severe drought (D2)
remained just under 2%, and no extreme drought (D3) or exceptional
drought (D4) was recorded.
