Diesel Fuel Added to NDSU FeedList

NDSU has added diesel to its FeedList in response to the diesel shortage in parts of North Dakota.

The North Dakota State University Extension Service has updated its FeedList Web site to include a listing of producers needing diesel fuel and producers with extra diesel fuel to sell.

This is in response to a temporary diesel shortage in some areas of North Dakota.

The FeedList program may be accessed at http://www.ag.ndsu.edu/feedlist/.

Individuals unable to find fuel from their normal suppliers may contact their local county Extension office to have their name added to the list. Also, individuals with extra fuel they would be willing to sell should contact their local county Extension office to list the quantity of fuel they have to sell.

This service provides a listing of potential buyers and sellers only. Producers in need of fuel would have to access this list and contact a seller on their own.

FeedList has been bringing together buyers and sellers who need or have feedstuffs, such as hay, pasture and corn, since the late 1970s.
