This morning Growing Georgia posted a lengthy story from Growing America on updated state by state assessments of damages to agriculture caused by Hurricane Matthew.  You can read the article here.  In many states, damage was bad but less than expected, while in North and South Carolina the damages from heavy rainfall in particular has caused huge problems for farmers.  Many crop farmers are rushing to harvest what they can before the crops rot in the fields.  Hog and chicken farmers have lost many animals and the carcasses of those animals are now becoming a potential health hazard.
