Crops in San Luis Obispo County are dropping in value, likely a result of the ongoing drought according to statistics released Tuesday.
The San Luis Obispo County Department of Agriculture says 2014's overall values dropped by two percent, year over year.
“Despite challenging drought and unusual weather during 2014, agriculture in San Luis Obispo County remains strong and is well in reach of achieving, in the near future, the $1 billion milestone in overall value”, said Ag Commissioner Martin Settevendemie.
