Ag Groups React to Hay Hauling Restrictions Suspended By Governor Stitt

Wed, 12 Oct 2022 05:07:02 CDT

Ag Groups React to Hay Hauling Restrictions Suspended By Governor Stitt Today, Governor Kevin Stitt signed Executive Order No. 2022-26, temporarily suspending restrictions on the size and weight of hay transported in the state. Executive order no. 2022-26 adjusts size and weight measurements for commercial hay loads, extending the width limit from 11’ to 12’, while maintaining high standards of safety.

Executive Vice President of the Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association, Michael Kelsey, reacts to Governer Stitt's Suspension of Hay Hauling Restrictions:

“Feed, specifically hay, in Oklahoma is in such tight supply due to the ongoing drought. Kelsey said. “Many Oklahoma ranchers are trying to find it in other states. Further, with fuel prices going back up, the freight price on hay is tremendous. The Governor’s temporary suspension will allow many Oklahoma ranchers to secure much-needed forage and have it transported to their ranch more efficiently. OCA greatly appreciates the Governor’s efforts to provide relief to Oklahoma’s beef ranchers during this horrific drought.”
