The Augusta County Board of Supervisors heard from extension agents about local drought conditions Monday, and the county is looking for some relief.

Samples from crops and pastures across the county revealed that a significant number of areas meet drought requirements, with southern areas being worse than others.

The board plans to vote Wednesday on a resolution asking Gov. Tim Kaine to declare the county officially in drought condition, which would make residents eligible for aid.
