In response to Hurricane Ida, RAFI-USA is offering hurricane relief grants to farmers whose crops, livestock, farms, and/or homes were damaged in the storm. Farmers in impacted areas of the South and Southeast are eligible for $500 grants which can be used for farm and/or household expenses directly related to the hurricane.
Applications will be reviewed and approved on a rolling basis until funds are expended.
As funds are limited, we ask that farmers carefully consider whether this emergency relief grant applies to their situation. Â
