The Hawai‘i Agricultural Foundation, in partnership with the Hawai‘i Farm Bureau, has launched a relief effort to support farmers and agricultural producers impacted by recent Kona Low storms.

The storms have had a devastating effect on agriculture across the state:

·     $83 million+ in agricultural losses statewide

·     380 producers reporting more than $23 million in direct damages

·     Nearly 3,500 acres of farmland and ranch land impacted

·     2,700 livestock lost

These numbers continue to grow as more damage is reported.

Local farmers are essential to Hawaiʻi’s food security, economy, and communities. When farms are impacted, it affects livelihoods, our local food supply, and the resilience of our islands.
