Walworth County among them. Neither ordinary nor easy times:
MADISON, Wis. (AP) – Federal officials have declared 23 counties in southern Wisconsin as natural disaster areas, making farms in those areas eligible for low-interest emergency loans.
The counties have been baked by recent heat waves in which temperatures sizzled into the 100-degree range and left severe drought conditions that took a major toll on crop production.
The disaster designation was announced Wednesday by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
