Florida farmers are bracing for a 'bomb cyclone' winter storm that threatens the state's agricultural sector. Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson has requested federal disaster aid in anticipation of the storm's impact. This powerful storm is expected to bring severe weather conditions, including heavy rain and strong winds, potentially causing significant damage to crops and disrupting vital agricultural activities. The 'winter fruit basket,' a term used to describe Florida's diverse crop production during the winter months, is particularly at risk.
