======================================================================

Compared to last week, reported hay sales sold steady to weak.
Demand was very light to light.
Some cattlemen have kicked out of summer grass, and many are getting 
ready to turn to grass so demand for that type of hay has slipped off 
extremely fast.
Many prospective buyers think the hay could be a little cheaper this 
fall if Mother Nature doesn't plague the state with a drought from east 
to west and north to south.
Few, counties in the SE area of the state remain dry of as last weeks U.S.
drought monitor.
Per Nass, spring oats are 82 percent planted, corn 22 percent and soybeans 
10 percent planted respectively.
Some producers have planted alfalfa instead of planting corn or soybeans.
