Perdue to observe Iowa’s crop and grain storage damage on Thursday

Ag Secretary Sonny Perdue will visit Iowa Thursday to observe the damage caused by the recent derecho wind event.

Iowa ag secretary Mike Naig says he thinks it’s important for Perdue to see the scale of the damage.

“Both crop damage and damage to our commercial and on-farm grain storage facilities that has really had a tremendous impact on us,” Naig says.

Naig was asked about Perdue’s visit during a webinar on Wednesday.
