About NIGP 94448
NIGP 94448 Hay Farming, an Item code, encompasses agricultural land leasing, hay production, and custom harvesting services procured by state and local jurisdictions to support recreational facilities, open space management, wildlife habitat programs, and operational cost recovery. State and local governments use this code to establish multi-year agricultural leases on public properties, contract for custom mowing and baling services, and monetize land through hay production agreements—securing either annual rental income, in-kind deliverables (bales for livestock feed), or shared-crop compensation structures where the contractor retains a percentage of the harvest as payment for services rendered.
The issuing-body mix spans county parks and open space departments (Boulder County Parks & Open Space, Williamson County, Ventura County), city recreation and parks authorities (City of Albuquerque, City of Lubbock), county economic development authorities (Botetourt County EDA), municipal procurement offices (DeKalb County), state natural-resource and environmental agencies (New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Fish and Wildlife Bureau), and special-purpose districts. Recent activity is concentrated in Colorado (Boulder County has issued four agricultural leases since late March 2026), Texas (Williamson County, City of Lubbock, City of Oxnard area), Georgia (DeKalb County), and New Mexico (City of Albuquerque), with additional procurement from Virginia and New Jersey. Representative opportunities include the City of Lubbock's hay harvesting ITB due February 19, 2026, structured as a crop-share contract where bidders propose the percentage split retained as payment; DeKalb County's feed, hay, and shavings ITB for Little Creek Horse Farm (response due July 23, 2026) with one-day delivery requirements; Boulder County's James Construction Agricultural Lease RFP (due May 8, 2026) offering 31 acres including a 5-acre hay buffer and water rights with annual rent of $2,700; the City of Albuquerque's farming services RFP for Alamo Field Open Space (due April 16, 2026) requiring a five-year commitment with regenerative agriculture and 25% wildlife cropping; and New Jersey's statewide custom farm services RFP covering 102 price lines including haying operations across three regional groups with a three-year base term and optional two-year extensions.
