Freeze Damage to Agriculture?

WAS YOUR AGRICULTURE BUSINESS DAMAGED BY FREEZING TEMPERATURES? 

Damages may include the loss of real property, equipment, inventory, or working capital OR the inability to pay normal expenses, such as rent, utilities, or fixed debt payments. 

The Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) and State Emergency Response Team (SERT) have activated the Business Damage Assessment Survey in response to the freezing weather that occurred during the weekend of January 28-30, 2022. The survey will gather information from agriculture businesses affected by the freezing weather and share the results with various local, state and federal agencies to implement appropriate disaster relief programs.
