Hay Market Report for the Upper Midwest for January 20, 2026

By MELISSA JEAN OHLRICH

All data have been compiled by Melissa Ohlrich, Crops and Soils Educator for Clark and Marathon Counties, UW-Madison Division of Extension. Prices are reported for alfalfa hay and grass hay. Alfalfa hay may include alfalfa/grass mix.  

All values are compiled from public and private quality tested sales through Wisconsin and the Midwest and reported on the first and third weeks of each month. All prices are reported on an as-fed basis, and not on a dry matter basis.

Note about the values:

Where the table is blank, no sales were reported. In some cases, only sale averages were reported and min/max values were not included. All values in the table represent the average of all values reported; i.e., “maximum” is the average of all maximum values reported, “minimum” is the average of all minimum values reported, and “average” is the average of all average values reported. So, the “average” in the table is often not the mathematical average of the range in the table.
