USDA Declares Crop Disaster Designations for 13 Counties
Statement
Issues: Agriculture and Food
Today, the United States Department of Agriculture declared crop disaster designations for 13 counties in Michigan's Fourth Congressional District for multiple disasters that occurred during the 2014 crop year.
"2014 was a difficult year for some of the 10,000 farms and 15,000 farm operators in the Fourth District. Agriculture is vital to Michigan's economy, and those operators in need of financial assistance can apply for loans that will keep their farm in business," said Representative John Moolenaar (R-Midland).
