Devastating Storm Levels Jefferson County Corn Fields

Strong winds and heavy rain caused extensive damage to corn fields in Jefferson County, New York. Approximately 600 acres of corn were flattened, posing potential financial losses for farmers. The National Weather Service suggests that the corn may have already been weighed down by rain before the wind pushed it over. Farmers are advised to contact the USDA Farm Services Agency for assistance and support. Despite the damage, experts believe that the corn stalks may recover and stand back up in due time.
