Abstract: Factors influencing alfalfa hay markets are identified. Alfalfa hay acreage response, demand, and price forecasting models are developed and estimated for California, using econometric and time-series (ARIMA) techniques. The estimated models are used for forecasting alfalfa acreage and prices, and evaluating the dominant market forces. The econometric and time-series models are compared on the basis of their forecasting ability and usefulness in economic analysis.
