The California State Board of Food and Agriculture is expected to talk about current flooding impacts to local communities and available USDA Disaster Assistance Programs at its upcoming meeting on April 4th.
CDFA Secretary Karen Ross says “recent regional flooding has significantly impacted local communities as well as California’s farmers, ranchers and farmworkers.”
“Federal and state resources are available to assist.”
Ross goes on to say “Advanced planning is critical as near record levels of Sierra snowpack will soon begin spring run-off, increasing the likelihood of further flood impacts in the coming months.”
The California State Board of Food and Agriculture will be held in Sacramento.
