More than 30 Georgia counties — including 10 in metro Atlanta — have been designated “primary natural disaster areas” by the United States Department of Agriculture, the agency announced Thursday.
The designation comes after a severe drought gripped the state for weeks during the growing season. Farmers in the affected counties can apply for emergency loans through the Farm Service Agency (FSA) to recover.
