Hurricane Helene was the deadliest storm in America since 2017, with over 225 lives lost and many others still missing. Danny Munch, an economist with the American Farm Bureau Federation, says agriculture is an important part of the Southeast and has a long road to recovery.
The impact of Helene is going to linger for a long time.
There are programs available to help farmers who suffered losses.
