The U.S. Department of Agriculture named more than 30 New York counties agricultural disaster areas following periods of unusually warm temperatures and cold snaps this spring.
Designated natural-disaster areas include Broome, Cayuga, Madison, Onondaga, Oswego, and Tompkins counties, according to a news release from Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand.
The natural disaster designation will allow farmers in affected counties to access federal funds to help them recover from losses. Farmers in some bordering counties will also have access to benefits.
