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

Compared to last week bales of alfalfa, grass hay and cornstalks sold steady.
Dehy alfalfa pellets steady.
Ground and delivered hay steady except in the west it sold steady to 
5.00 lower.
Demand was light to moderate.
Unseasonal warm weather across the region has been in the livestock owners 
favor so far this fall.
Livestock has been able to graze winter pasture or cornstalks with little 
to no extra supplementation.
Forecast looks very favorable for the rest of December with most daytime 
highs warmer than normal.
Everyone says winter is a good time for a drought.
Let's hope it the dryness doesn't carry over through next year!
