Farmers in the Mojave River Valley district expand alfalfa acreage amid strong prices. Hinkley growers sell baled alfalfa at 22.50 to 24.00 dollars per ton, while Dr. Chapin reseeds ten acres, Andrew Speth to renew 15 to 20 acres, and Phillips and Clever ranches also replant. The effort aims to maintain highest production after years of growth.
