Woffnr po grcg flF0 i By Jeff Bowers North Carolina's continuing 90-plus degree weather is causing problems for many of the state's farmers. An N.C. Department of Agriculture spokesman said Tuesday that the hardest hit areas of the state are the Piedmont counties of Anson, Union and Stanly and the northeastern corner of the state. "We're at a crucial point right now. If the temperature goes higher, we could have a much greater loss. If it stays moderate, we'll be OK," saidCarlyleTeague, director of public affairs for the Department of Agriculture. Teague said the greatest loss so far has been in poultry, including broilers, breeder hens and turkeys. "The survey we conducted last weekend showed that 516,000 broilers have been lost," he said. "We've lost some corn in the northeast," Teague said. "But the state's tobacco crop seems to be in good shape."

News Synd. Inc. All Rights Reserved 72463 The heat wave that many parts of the South and Midwest have suffered was relieved by rains and cooler temperatures earlier this week. But agriculture officials warned that it may not be enough. Scattered light showers fell in all parts of Texas for the first time since June 22, and the temperature there cooled to below 100 degrees. Officials said that much of the nation's cotton crop could survive if more rain falls in the next few weeks. A Virginia agriculture spokesman estimated that farmers in that state have lost up to $100 million as a result of the drought and high heat. President Jimmy Carter said he would hasten federal aid to farmers in the South and will urge federal agencies "to do everything possible to alleviate the drought and intense heat wave."
