FILE - In this Sept. 21, 2004 file photo provided by the Mississippi State University, Dale Weaver, left, and Dennis Reginelli, Mississippi State University Extension area agent, examine cotton damage from Hurricane Ivan’s winds on Weaver’s farm near Macon in northeast Miss. The permanent disaster aid program in the 2008 Farm Bill was intended to spare Congress from having to scrape up extra money every time a drought, flood or hurricane struck farm country. But southern farmers say the permanent program doesn't work for them. (AP Photo/Mississippi State University, Marco Nicovich, File) NO SALES
