======================================================================
Compared to last week: Alfalfa hay weak.
Moderate demand at best for dairy quality alfalfa.
Light demand for alfalfa round bales as the very mild winter has allowed
beef cattle operators to feed less hay.
Very warm temps again, near 80 degrees in the SE corner early week.
More seasonal weather in the forecast for the next 10-14 days.
