Compared to the last report, movement has increased due to some contracts
being made for new crop.
Demand for hay in Idaho is moderate to slow, most producers say there
isn't going to be a lot of premium and supreme quality hay right now
with first crop getting rained on.
Some people are holding onto their hay waiting for better prices, Some
hay presses have been offering a dollar a point or lower at the stack
and some dairy's have been offering a dollar a point delivered up to
190-200.

Drought Monitor Website, most of Idaho is under abnormally dry soil moisture

normal, South and East Idaho has been having average temperatures and
