International demand from China is changing the game for U.S. hay production.

Last week, Rabobank released a report showing global demand for U.S. hay is easing the oversupply producers faced in 2015 and 2016. As demand continues to climb, Rabobank thinks hay prices will find further support.

This is also reflected in used hay equipment values.
