"DONALSONVILLE, Ga. (AP) - Southwest Georgia farmers scrambled to salvage
their peanut crops following a torrential soaking from Tropical Storm
Hanna, while agricultural officials in the Carolinas predicted major cotton
losses from the heavy rain.
Agricultural losses in Donalsonville and surrounding Seminole County could
run into the millions of dollars, said Rome Ethridge, the county's
agricultural extension coordinator, whose office was awash with a foot of
water Sunday morning."
