Welcome to Dakota Premium Hay

Here in South Dakota, we're proud of our heritage. Our forefathers settled the northern plains with little more than a strong will, a strong back and a few good horses. In those days the rules to live by were simple: work hard, treat people fair and take good care of your horses. At Dakota Premium Hay we still work hard, treat people fair and we provide top quality equine forage to our customers.
 
Dakota Premium Hay is located in the Missouri river basin near Yankton in south eastern South Dakota. Soil conditions and climate in this area allow for the production of some of the finest hay on the planet. We have nearly 100 local producers and distributors in 12 states. The staff at Dakota Premium Hay takes great pride in hay quality and customer service. We are big enough to take care of all of your hay needs no matter what season and small enough that no one gets lost in the shuffle. We work hard to take care of our customers and we offer top quality products at a fair price.
 
In the cutting room at DPH we process 3'x3'x8' large square bales. In one of the first steps the large square is flipped on its side, cut in half lengthwise and each half of the bale processed separately. This allows us to see in to the heart of the bale. Any part of the bale that doesn’t meet our standards is discarded. Because of the ability to do such a thorough visual inspection, Dakota Premium Hay has the confidence to put a quality guarantee on all of our small square bales.
 
For ease of handling, each semi-load we ship is ribbon shrink wrapped and palletized. This allows the customer to unload with any machine you can attach a set of forks to, saving time and labor cost!
