Purdue Extension hosting drought meetings

WEST LAFAYETTE — Farmers can learn how to manage the consequences of this summer's drought at a series of meetings across Indiana hosted by Purdue Extension.

The extension agency says 50 people signed up for a recent meeting hosted by the Cass and Carroll county extension offices, but 85 showed up. Topics included U.S. Department of Agriculture emergency programs and how to fill out claims for crop insurance.
