Annual Directory Promotes Colorado Hay

BROOMFIELD, Colo. –The Colorado Department of Agriculture publishes the Colorado Hay Directory annually to help connect Colorado hay producers with buyers. The 2014 edition of the directory is now available to the public at no cost.

“The directory is a great way for Colorado hay producers to market their hay,” said Wendy White, marketing specialist for the Colorado Department of Agriculture. “Hay buyers from throughout Colorado and across the country request the publication.”

The 28th edition of the Colorado Hay Directory features producers and brokers of hay as well as companies that provide hay-related products and services. Categorized by region, each listing includes the type and amount of hay available, bale type and size, whether or not laboratory analysis is available, certified weed free status and identifies organic hay.

The Colorado Hay Directory is published by the Colorado Department of Agriculture in cooperation with participating Colorado hay producers, Colorado State University Extension, and with support from Hutchison Incorporated, Land Trust of the Upper Arkansas, ProAG-Morris Industries Inc. and Producer’s Choice.

The directory and other hay resources are available online at www.coloradoagriculture.com. For more information or to request a copy of the 2014 Colorado Hay Directory, call the Colorado Department of Agriculture at (303) 869-9175.
