Disaster Declared for Farmers

With a brand new round of storms, this week, it’s almost hard to remember the February snow, but President Obama has declared 59 Missouri counties as primary natural disaster areas. Farmers and other agricultural producers in Miller, Moniteau, LaClede, Morgan, Osage and other counties are eligible for low interest emergency loans from the U-S-D-A’s Farm Service Agency, in addition to other disaster programs. This is for damages and losses caused by the winter storm from January 31st to February 5th.
