Prices for hay are surging, as supplies start to run scarce with drought continuing, and worsening across parts of New South Wales.

Charity Rural Aid's Buy a Bale campaign is down to its last 1,500, and is continuing to source more, but a lot of hay farmers have pre-sold their stock for the next six months.

Donations can continue to be made through the buy a bale website.

Rural reporter Eddie Summerfield caught up with Rural Aid Chief Executive Charles Alder.
