USDA Designates Numerous Nebraska Counties as Natural Disaster Areas Due to Drought

The USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) has designated numerous Nebraska counties as primary natural disaster areas due to drought conditions. This designation opens the door for eligible producers in those counties — and surrounding ones — to apply for emergency loans to help recover from production and physical losses.

Emergency loans can help producers replace essential equipment or livestock, reorganize operations, or refinance certain debts. Loan approval depends on the extent of losses, available security, and repayment ability.
