AKASKA, S.D.(DRGNews)- The Akaska Development Corporation is coordinating the transportation to get hay and feed donations from South Dakota to cattle producers in Texas devastated by recent wildfires.
Texas Rancher Billy Hall says they’re doing what they can to manage the herds and resources they have left.
Hall says some people have been able to relocate their cattle, but not everyone.
Hall says with grass burned up, they need feed for the cattle that are left. He says hay and feed donations from South Dakota would be much appreciated in Texas.
Darrell Thompson with the Akaska Development Corporation says the first loads of hay will leave South Dakota on Friday. He says anyone who would like to donate hay or feed can contact him at 605-845-4849. Financial donations can be mailed to:
