This fund is intended to farmers in crisis or suffering losses due to environmental events (such as drought, flooding, and wildfires) requiring them to re-locate/evacuate, transport or replace goods, tools/equipment, or animals, replace income from crop losses, repair critical infrastructure, seek treatment for injuries or health losses.
