Farmers who've had their crops obliterated this summer by long-lasting drought conditions need quick financial aid, says the head of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture.

Corn, hay and soybean crops have been the most affected by the excessively dry weather conditions this season, with eastern Ontario being one of the hardest hit.
