Agriculture Ministry's response inadequate to drought disaster
The province faces a severe agricultural crisis after an exceptionally wet fall and early snow left 60 percent of crops in fields and up to 100 percent unharvested in some areas. Grain farmers, ranchers, and local businesses face $40 million in direct losses in the Peace region, with calls for low interest loans, deferral of crop insurance premiums, and government guarantees. Community groups press Victoria for meaningful aid, noting wildlife damage and upcoming farming costs while contrasting to recent government guarantees for other industries.
