With intense drought and wildfires in the western Dakotas and eastern Montana consuming pasture land, Farm Rescue was offering hay relief for farmers and ranchers. Livestock feed can be hauled to ranchers affected by the natural disasters in areas where the drought level is severe (D2) or worse. Those in extreme drought will be given higher priority.
