12 Arizona Counties Re-Designated Natural Disaster Areas
The U.S. Department of Agriculture announced the re-designation of 12 Arizona counties as primary natural disaster areas due to losses and damages caused by recent drought.
The Mohave Valley Daily News reported farmers in eligible counties have eight months to apply for emergency loans to help cover part of their actual losses.
The designation immediately offers the availability of low-interest Farm Service Agency emergency loans in all primary and contiguous counties.
