North Dakota Drought Hotline adds online map to free service

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) - The North Dakota Agriculture Department is adding an online map to its Drought Hotline program.

The hotline helps connect producers who need hay and those with hay to sell, or pasture or hay land to rent.

Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring says the online map on the department website details locations from which calls have come.

The Drought Hotline number is 701-425-8454. It is answered weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Callers can leave a message on evenings and weekends. The service is free.
