Things are really starting to heat up with alfalfa stands across the area. The first few stands hit the budding stage this past week which means harvest is not too far ahead. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate and give us a few decent days to get alfalfa cut and stored.

Below is the Alfalfa Harvest Report for samples collected on May 21st.

The goal of this program is to encourage growers to be strategic with alfalfa hay crop harvest. This is not to determine the date hay harvest should occur.
