The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in the Idaho Region is soliciting quotes for approximately 500 tons of alfalfa hay to support the Boise District Wild Horse and Burro Program. The procurement requires high-quality 2025 or 2026 crop alfalfa hay from 2nd or 3rd cutting, delivered in 80-100 pound two-strand bales or three-strand bales up to 120 pounds. The hay must be domestically grown, fine-stemmed, leafy-green quality with 15-18% protein content, free from mold and damage, and may contain up to 15% grass. This is structured as an "All or None" procurement under NAICS code 111940 (Hay Farming), requiring vendors to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). Quotes must be submitted via email by August 29, 2025, at 11:00 AM MDT, with the contract period running from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026.

This solicitation is designated as a small business set-aside with a size standard of $2.5 million in annual receipts under NAICS 111940. No incumbent contractor or current service providers are identified in the solicitation materials. The contract does not specify a total award value or budget range, though the 500-ton quantity requirement provides a basis for estimating potential contract value. Delivery will be made to BLM Wild Horse and Burro Corrals in Boise, Idaho, in increments of 100-130 tons during specified business hours. Contractors must provide advance notification of deliveries and furnish state-certified weight tickets, with all hay required to be delivered within the one-year contract performance period.
