03 SEPTEMBER 2020 - RADCLIFFE, IOWA: Iowa Governor KIM REYNOLDS speaks at an event for Iowa farmers. She accompanied Sonny Perdue, the US Secretary of Agriculture, who made a secretarial disaster declaration for 42 counties in central Iowa during a farm visit in central Iowa Thursday. The secretarial disaster declaration frees up more federal funds, from the Department of Agriculture, to help in recovery from the derecho storm that wiped out about one-third of Iowa's corn crop on Monday, August 10, 2020. Many Iowa farmers are still rebuilding lost buildings or plowing under lost crops. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
