Need hay? Ohio’s online directory can connect farmers

REYNOLDSBURG, Ohio — Ohio farmers who may have grown more hay than they need can connect with farmers who don’t have enough to feed their herds.

Ohio’s Hay Directory, along with other drought-related information, is now available at: www.agri.ohio.gov/TopNews/DroughtInformationAndResources/.

The directory is the result of an executive order signed by Gov. John R. Kasich in July to help farmers through what is being called the worst agricultural drought in 50 years.

The Ohio Department of Agriculture is also scheduling informational meetings around the state to provide crop and livestock farmers with information on farming in a drought and on accessing available relief resources.
