Quality tested hay auction season is here and area producers will again have the opportunity to buy or sell forage based on known nutrient value.  This winter, quality tested hay auctions will be offered on the first Friday of each month running December through April at Equity Livestock in Lomira.   The Fond du Lac and Dodge County Forage Councils will sponsor the auctions along with Equity Livestock.  For these tested sales to continue in the future, both buyers and sellers will need to support them to every extent possible.  As always, auctions will begin at 12 noon but loads must be checked-in no later than 10:30 a.m. to insure adequate time for testing.   

Hay price results from the Lomira auctions can be obtained by calling the FORAGEline.
