Northern Sunrise Declares Agriculture Disaster

Northern Sunrise County has become the latest county in the region to declare a municipal agricultural disaster.

Delayed crops and a wet fall generated a considerable number of unharvested acres in the County.

Through the declaration of a Municipal Agricultural Disaster, Council acknowledges producers and their significant hardships both in this year and in the recent growing seasons.

With this declaration, the county hopes to create an opportunity to lobby the Provincial and Federal Governments to assist producers.

Saddle Hills County and Northern Lights County have also declared municipal agricultural disasters.
