About MFGA’s Hay Relief Page

As a result of challenging weather and growing seasons that producers have faced over the last years, MFGA has launched this Hay Relief page to assist Manitoba forage and livestock producers in finding information and sources to help cope with and plan for challenging times on the livestock feed front.

MFGA suggests the Manitoba Hay Listing Service as one resource as well as calling the Manitoba Agriculture staff at 1-84-GROW-MB-AG (1-844-769-6224). See the Manitoba Hay Listing section below.
