The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Development Under Secretary Dallas Tonsager and Acting Under Secretary for Farm and Foreign Agricultural Services Michael Scuse began a two-day tour of Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Missouri at Vidalia on Thursday where they met with those affected by recent disasters.
