The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), U. S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack announced on Friday, September 16, 2011 that both Montgomery and Warren Counties have been declared natural disaster areas due to heavy rain and flooding since May 1st.
The declaration paves the way for farmers in those counties to seek financial assistance from the USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) for their losses to the severe weather.
Farmers in these counties who qualify would receive FSA emergency loans or assistance from the federal Supplemental Revenue Assistance Payments Program. Affected farmers would apply to the FSA, which considers each application individually on its own merits.
