BLACK, COMMISSIONER WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 8, 2014 VOL. 97, NO. 1 COPYRIGHT 2014 Farm Bureau unveils new heart-healthy certified peanut packaging By Dallas Duncan Georgia Farm Bureau President Zippy Duvall, left, and GFB Peanut Advisory Committee Chairman Wes Shannon display the new peanut packets, which include the American Heart Association's heart-check mark, indicating that peanuts are a heart-healthy snack. Photo courtesy Georgia Farm Bureau Changes are coming to the familiar metallic package of Georgia Farm Bureau peanuts this year. The new peanuts, unveiled in December at GFB's annual convention in Jekyll Island, will be in larger serving sizes and there will be an addition to the package design: the red heart-check mark of the American Heart Association. "We've been talking to the American Heart Association for quite a long time," said Pat Kearney, program director for The Peanut Institute. "We have so much research that shows peanuts are heart-healthy. ... About a year or two ago, they decided that they would actually approve peanuts to be eligible for the heart-check mark." Since then, The Peanut Institute began working with manufacturers to get their products certified so they can use the heart-check mark on packaging. One of those products is the one-ounce bag of oil-roasted, salted peanuts distributed by GFB. "For many years I'm sure a certain segment of our population thought that peanuts were really fattening, something they didn't want to eat, particularly salted peanuts," said Don McGough, GFB director of commodities and marketing. "All of the salt is on the surface of the peanut, so in reality it takes very little salt on the peanut to get that salt flavor." The sodium in heart-check certified peanuts is significantly less than the AHA cutoff point for heart-healthy, Kearney said. "The cutoff point is 140 milligrams. Most salted peanuts are less than 120 milligrams," she said. Sodium levels are just one of many nutrient requirements products must See PEANUTS, page 7 INSIDE THIS ISSUE Farm services ads.................. 2 Feature recipes......................7 Handicraft ads.......................11 Ad category guidelines..........11 Notice Ad deadline for the Feb. 5 issue is noon, Jan. 22. Many factors to consider when choosing food for felines and Fidos By Dallas Duncan Pet foods run the gamut raw, dry, wet, organic and more so there's a lot to choose from when trying to decide what diet is best for the furry friend Santa left under the tree. "Nutritionists believe that ingredients do not matter. What matters is nutrients," said Dr. Susan Wynn, nutritionist at Blue Pearl Georgia Veterinary Specialists in Sandy Springs, Ga. The one exception is in felines: nutritionists would not recommend vegetarian diets for cats. "Cats are obligate carnivores. They must have animal protein. In the wild, they will die without animal flesh. Animal flesh contains unique amino acids and fats that you cannot get from plant proteins," she said. Dogs, on the other hand, are omnivores. Two important nutrients in feline diets are the amino acids arginine and taurine, said Associate State Veterinarian Dr. Wendy Cuevas-Espelid. Arginine prevents toxic ammonia buildup in the bloodstream, and without taurine, cats could suffer from blindness, deafness, heart failure and a host of other diseases, she said. For dogs, protein needs vary by breed, age and activity level. See FOOD, page 12 Meat and meat meals are the primary sources of protein in dry and wet cat foods. Because cats are "obligate carnivores," meaning some of their essential nutrients come from animal proteins, nutritionists do not recommend vegetarian diets for felines.

PAGE 6 FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 8, 2014 Greetings from the Gold Dome in Atlanta! As we prepare for the 152nd legislative session, we wanted to take this opportunity to introduce you to some key figures in the Georgia General Assembly, as well as some important issues that may be discussed. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with your local delegation and communicate with them about topics that are important to you. Please join us in welcoming three new delegates: Chuck Efstration of Dacula, Dewey McClain of Lawrenceville and Brian Prince of Augusta. These representatives were elected after the 2013 session adjourned and we congratulate them and look forward to working CAPITOL CORNER Compiled by Sydne Smith and Chris Green with them in the coming months. The 2014 legislative session is sched- uled to start Monday, Jan. 13, and must adjourn within 40 legislative days. It is important to note that legislative days are not the same as calendar days. We expect the primary focus of this year's session to be approving the amended Fiscal Year 2014 budget as well as passing the Fiscal Year 2015 budget, and we are keeping a vigilant eye on any legislation that may affect the Department and the agriculture industry. We would also like to recognize the members of the House and Senate Agriculture and Consumer Affairs Committees for their dedication to protecting and promoting Georgia agriculture: House Agriculture and Consumer Affairs Committee Tom McCall Elberton (Chairman) Buddy Harden Cordele (Vice Chairman) Robert Dickey Mussela (Secretary) Patty Bentley Reynolds Ellis Black Valdosta Jon Burns Newington Amy Carter Valdosta Winfred Dukes Albany Terry England Auburn Carl Von Epps LaGrange Bubber Epps Dry Branch Susan Holmes Monticello Rick Jasperse Jasper Margaret Kaiser Atlanta Tom Kirby Loganville Regina Quick Athens Jay Roberts Ocilla Dale Rutledge McDonough Jan Tankersley Brooklet Darlene Taylor Thomasville Sam Watson Moultrie Senate Agriculture and Consumer Affairs Committee John Wilkinson Toccoa (Chairman) Tyler Harper Ocilla (Vice Chairman) Frank Ginn Danielsville (Secretary) Dean Burke Bainbridge Bill Heath Bremen Lester Jackson Savannah Nan Orrock Atlanta Tommie Williams Lyons GUEST COLUMN: Looking forward through the rear-view mirror A word from Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture Gary W. Black As I begin this column, it's 7:15 a.m., Dec. 31, 2013. Not surprisingly, my focus is on the future. But my experience is that wisdom encourages us to simulta- neously consider the past. I like to call this practice "looking forward through the rear-view mirror." Please don't turn to the ads yet. I promise this will make sense in a minute. I am 55 years old. I do not fear aging, but surrealism sets in when BLACK your son gives you a 55-year-old Time magazine for Christmas. Featured on the cover is farmer Warren North, the central character of the story entitled "Farm Automation." Warren farmed 1,000 acres in northwest Indiana raising feedgrains that he converted to protein. He fed hogs and cattle. The author's astonishment regarding technology in agricul- ture leaps from his writing: "In the early morning mist, the low-lying white barn, sur- mounted by five giant blue-back silos rode the frozen prairie like an ocean liner. Like a rumble of surf came the hungry bellowing of 400 white-faced Herefords and the grunting of 500 Hampshire hogs waiting at row on row of troughs to be fed. In the barn, North stepped up to an instrument panel as intricate as a ship's and began pushing buttons and pulling switches. All around the barn came to vibrant life. From one silo dropped ground corn, from another silage, from a third shelled corn." Just 55 years ago, Time's writer is hyperventilating over the fact that ol' Warren has electricity. Rightfully so, the author lauds North's early adoption of hybrid seed corn and offers a good overview of how the technology came into being. To attribute our quality of life, living standard, life expectancy and yes, economic freedom, to the development of hybrid seed corn is in no way an overstate- ment. This is true for both farmers and consumers even today. Halfway through the article, I am thinking, "a discussion of farm automation in 1959 without a mention of poultry would be odd." Then I turn the page to find a veritable roll call of Georgia's poultry hall of fame Roy Durr, Charles Vantress and Jesse Jewell. These innovators in poultry genetics and pro- cessing paved the way for what is now the largest segment ($5 billion) of our state's agricultural economy. Have I mentioned yet that this was only 55 years ago? The piece wraps up with an interview with Yale lawyer, Standard Oil Company tycoon grandson J. Rockefeller Prentice, founder of the American Breeders Service. Prentice pioneered the freezing of bull semen for use in improving beef and dairy genetics worldwide. Now, in 1959, Prentice has the audacity to project that fertilized embryos can be transferred to surrogate mama cows to speed up the process. Says the author, "The technique of artificial insemination helps a farmer with poor herds to upbreed his herd only in small stages. To speed the process Prentice experimented with the technique of artificially inseminating a prize cow, surgically removing the fertilized egg and implanting it into a scrub cow which merely acts as a live incubator. The calf that is born is a prize animal with none of its mother's bad blood line. Scientists see a time when a farmer will buy a packet of fertilized ova and in one year obtain from his scrub cows a herd of the finest cattle." Based on the author's skill with pen and typewriter, ag journalists of the day would have never feared for their jobs, but maybe we can with liberty still today understand what he was trying to say. So in our rear-view mirror, we see a past that was dedicated to newer and better ways of agricultural production in service to all mankind. Entering 2014, what does our future hold in store? Experts tell us, and I agree, that we must double food production and yield by 2050 in order to feed a globe with nine billion inhabitants. The gain must come from improved plant and animal genetics coupled with better utilization of what we produce and the natural resources (water, soil) that we manage in the production and processing chain. Our research universities must be stronger. Our capabilities here at your Georgia Department of Agriculture must be positioned to meet the challenges. It's a wonderful time for young people to consider a career in one of the more than 300 occupations in this industry. I hope many of them will learn from the rear-view mirror and now focus on the windshield, tackling the challenges of the future with vigor and enthusiasm. My prayer for all Market Bulletin readers in 2014 is for safety and health all year long. Now, 55 years after Time's article, I have to go get four Angus cows into the chute. I have four SimAngus embryos to transfer. Yes, I really do. agriCULTURE Letter from the Editor Happy New Year, Market Bulletin readers! I hope you were able to ring in 2014 with plenty of ham, collard greens and black-eyed peas. I enjoyed a quiet celebration with one of my favorite Christmas presents, a ginormous tumbler (filled with nothing but ice water, of course). As I sat there sipping on ice water and watching Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve, I reflected on how this tumbler came to be mine. I'm serious: this tumbler is ginormous. I think I can pour a Route 66-size drink from Sonic in it and still have room for cherry limeade. My boyfriend calls it "a grownup sippy cup" because it comes with a washable lid and straw. It's got red and black stripes and a patch on it with the state of Georgia and the proclamation "I Miss Athens." I'd seen this tumbler before on Pinterest, and then my friend Libby got one and I decided I really wanted one. However, I didn't know where to get one and I was trying to save money, so I just put the thought of it on the backburner. But lo, on Christmas morning, what should my eyes behold, but the "I Miss Athens" tumbler in my hand in all its glory! I think I acted like an 8-year-old as I exclaimed how I'd wanted one of these for months. I thought my family was laughing at my reaction. Barret my little brother was almost cackling and my mom had this embarrassed look on her face. I don't know which one of them was the first to tell me this story, but at the end of it we were all rolling. Barret bought the tumbler ages ago, which for him is quite the shopping feat. We have been known to be out on Christmas Eve shopping for Chanel No. 5 for Mom and regularly stay up until 1 a.m. Christmas morning wrapping presents. He brought it home about two weeks before Christmas with the intention of wrapping it at some point. When Mom walked into Barret's room after he'd left for work, she noticed a bag next to his trashcan with this UGA-themed cup in it. Mom was already a little peeved at Barret. He'd come home for a couple days and brought his cat with him, conveniently not telling our parents the cat was coming. After changing the sheets because they were covered with cat hair, she looked down at this "perfectly good cup" sitting next to the trashcan and got a little upset Barret was, she assumed, getting rid of it. Now, a little bit of back-story here. Due to an unfortunate series of events, some Georgia-related items Barret once had were destroyed or thrown away. Mom thought this cup was a latecomer to the party and decided if Barret didn't want it, she sure did! She took it downstairs, washed it and brought Daddy a drink in it. The tumbler was in full use that following weekend when I was home. I somehow avoided seeing it (probably because Daddy sometimes has a habit of leaving his cups in the shed). I came back to work the next Monday, and that was the day Barret came home again for Christmas. He walked in the door and came into the kitchen where he saw the tumbler drying on the dish rack. "Mom! What is this doing here?" he asked. She said she didn't know why he'd thrown it away, so she gave it to Daddy. After a brief pause (I can just imagine his face when this discussion happened), Barret said, "You gave Dallas' Christmas present to Daddy?!" This time when it came to his room, Barret made sure it was wrapped. And now I guess we have to get Daddy his own tumbler ... since we took away his "perfectly good cup." Moral of this story: Don't wait `til the last minute to wrap presents, kids. You never know who's snooping!

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 8, 2014 FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN PAGE 7 FEATURED RECIPE: ARTY'S GARDEN: Award-winning chili with Southern cornbread Winter jasmine sunny flowers for gloomy days Editor's Note: This chili recipe comes to us from Department Inspector General Stewart Hicks. It won the Department's Chili Cook-off for Charity event in December. The cornbread recipe was inspired by Wendy Thornton of Kathleen, Ga. Ingredients: For the chili: 2 pounds ground beef 1 pound beef sausage, diced Two 15-ounce cans chili beans 15-ounce can spicy chili beans Two 28-ounce cans diced tomatoes 6 ounces tomato paste 1 large yellow onion 1 bell pepper, chopped 2 green chili peppers 1 teaspoon dried basil 1 teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon paprika 1 tablespoon bacon bits 4 cubes beef bouillon cup beer cup chili powder 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1 tablespoon dried oregano 2 teaspoons ground cumin 2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1 teaspoon sugar For the cornbread: 2 cups self-rising buttermilk white cornmeal mix 1/3 cup self-rising flour teaspoon baking powder 1 egg, beaten 1.25 cups buttermilk cup vegetable oil Instructions: 1. Heat a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Crumble ground beef and sausage into the hot pan and cook until evenly browned. Drain off excess grease. 2. Pour in chili beans, spicy chili beans, diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Add onion, bell pepper, chili peppers, bacon bits, beef bouillon and beer. Blend and season with remaining ingredients. 3. Stir well. Cover and simmer over low heat for at least two hours, stirring occasionally. 4. While chili is cooking, preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix all cornbread ingredients together in a bowl. The mixture should be thick, but still thin enough to pour without being soupy. 5. Pour cornbread batter into a hot, greased eight- to nine-inch cast iron skillet. Bake for approximately 25 minutes until golden brown. 6. After two hours, adjust salt, pepper and chili powder to taste. All recipes have been tested for accuracy by Georgia Department of Agriculture home economists unless otherwise noted.

When people ask me about the "forsythia that blooms in the winter," I know they are usually referring to winter jasmine. Like forsythia, winter jasmine (Jasminum nudiflorum) produces lemonyellow flowers on bare stems. However, winter jasmine can begin blooming in December. Its dark green stems and mounding, almost weeping, habit are also distinguishing features. In fact, this mounding habit makes winter jasmine a perfect choice for a steep bank that is difficult to mow. Another good way to use winter jasmine is to plant it at the top of a retaining wall and let it cascade over or plant it next to a chain-link fence where it can grow up and drape over the fence. In northern climes, gardeners train winter jasmine against sunny walls to provide extra warmth and earlier blooms. While there is no need for that here, it could be an attractive choice for espaliering against a wall. Those who have only seen winter jasmine in the landscape may be surprised to find it is a popular subject for bonsai, readily trained into picturesque shapes and beautiful in flower. I am obligated to mention that winter jasmine is durable, withstands poor soils and heavy clay, has no serious pest problems, thrives in sun or shade although flowering is reduced in shade and is drought-tolerant, but what I really want to discuss are those flowers that will brighten the darkest winter day. All winter jasmine needs is a little warmth in winter and it will begin flowering. If there is a cold spell, it will put on the brakes and begin again as soon as it is over. This on-again, off-again manner of flowering means that although winter jasmine blooms over a longer period than forsythia, it does not usually create the grand yellow spectacle that forsythia does in the spring. That is a small matter. One winter jasmine flower in early January is worth 10 forsythia blooms in late March. Lastly, winter jasmine is indeed a true species of jasmine but, unlike many of its cousins, it has no fragrance. Hey, we can't have everything.

He's a lifelong gardener and a horticulture graduate of North Carolina State University who encourages everyone to discover the pleasures of plants and gardening.

PEANUTS: Heart-check mark shows snack is `powerhouse' of nutrition From Page 1 meet in order to be certified heart-healthy by AHA, said John Smiles, vice president of communications for the association's Greater Southeast Affiliate. "In particular around nuts, we do have some very specific criteria [per label serving]," he said. "Saturated fat is four grams or less. Trans-fat is less than 0.5 grams. Cholesterol is 0 milligrams." In addition, nuts must provide at least 10 percent of the recommended daily value of vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, calcium, protein or dietary fiber, Smiles said. Peanuts were not certified previously because they are high in fat, Kearney said. However, science and dietary guidelines demonstrate that it's not the amount of fat that is unhealthy so much as the types of fat. Peanuts are high in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, Kearney said. These "good fats," combined with the peanut protein and other nutrients, contribute to it being a heart-healthy food. "Peanuts are a powerhouse, really, of nutrition," McGough said. "They provide protein, plant protein ... and have a lot of nutrients in them: niacin, riboflavin, some of those things that are critical for young mothers or pregnant women to have in their diet. Peanuts contain oil, but it's a good oil, low in saturated fat. Also, peanuts have a considerable amount of fiber." Kearney said a lot of research including a recently released Harvard study shows that eating peanuts at least once a week will reduce this risk, and maximum benefit can be achieved by eating peanuts or peanut butter five to seven times a week. "[The Harvard study] found that the people who were eating peanuts daily basically cut their death rate from heart disease, from cancer, from diabetes and really a number of other diseases," Kearney said. "Eating them a little bit every day seems to be the secret. ... The fact that you don't have to eat a lot of them is good, so you're not consuming huge amounts of calories." Studies like this prompted The Peanut Institute to apply for a US Food and Drug Administration heart-healthy claim in 2003. The claim states that scientific evidence suggests that eating 1.5 ounces of most nuts as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease. It's a message McGough believes Georgia, the No. 1 peanut-producing state, needs to promote. "We put those [Farm Bureau] peanuts all across the country. They go everywhere: Washington, DC., they go to certain other state Farm Bureaus ... we have travelers that go abroad and want to take some little gift to give their host country, and peanuts make an ideal small token of where they're from. We supply that to the University of Georgia Athletic Department and they serve it to athletes at UGA," McGough said. "I can't really imagine all the different people that would look at our pack of peanuts." Some of them, he said, might be on the brink of deciding whether peanuts should be part of their diet. "To a certain audience out there, this heart-check is giving them permission to eat peanuts again," McGough said.

By Dallas Duncan "Kittens need large amounts of energy provided by their food. Their energy requirements are about two to three times more than an adult cat. About 30 percent of their energy should come from protein," Cuevas-Espelid said. "Puppies need to be fed accordingly for growth to be at an average rate, not a maximum rate, for the breed. This helps to prevent skeletal deformities." She said puppies and kittens should be on a growth formula until they reach adulthood, and adults should be on a maintenance diet. Older pets should eat a senior diet formulated to provide nutrients for aging animals. Cuevas-Espelid said the primary source of protein in canine and feline diets comes from meat or meal. "A byproduct meal just means they throw a lot of scrap pieces together and they grind them up into a flour, or a meal," said Alan Lowman, Georgia Department of Agriculture ag inputs program director. "The fat content will probably be higher because fat is one of those things that's discarded, but fat is a high-energy compound. It's going to make that coat look really shiny." Meat meal, according to the Association of American Feed Control Officials, is a more concentrated source of protein because it doesn't contain the same water content as whole meat. It can be added to dry foods to increase protein content. But not all byproducts are created equal, Wynn said. A large pet food company has come under fire in the past for using byproducts, but what blogs might not tell pet owners is that this company's byproducts are entire chicken carcasses. "That's about as Paleolithic and natural as you can get," Wynn said. "There are cheaper companies who use the cheapest parts, feet and head and things like that, because they are cheap." Because AAFCO regulations do not allow pet food labels to disclose specific byproducts, Wynn recommends pet owners contact companies to learn more about their byproduct ingredients, and said reputable companies will disclose what they use. The concept of byproducts can turn some pet owners to a raw foods diet, but some experts caution that raw or refrigerated foods can be more susceptible to potential foodborne pathogens and mis- handling. Pet foods can be recalled because of bacterial contamination, such as Salmonella, said Jessica Badour, recall outreach specialist for the Department's Food Safety Division. "Anything that comes refrigerated should be properly held at 41 degrees or colder," she said. "And again, when you've got that raw component, there's just a higher risk that you could cross-contaminate by handling it and touching something else in your kitchen." Contaminated pet food is a human safety risk as well, as people can get sick from handling it. Badour advises consumers to keep the bags pet food comes in, or cut off the brand name, UPC code and lot code to keep in case that food is recalled. "Studies that have been done on both commercially available and homemade raw protein diets have found a high percentage, 30 to 50 percent, of them contaminated with pathogenic organisms, and up to 30 percent of the dogs fed such diets may shed pathogenic organisms in their stool," Cuevas-Espelid said, quoting a statement from the American Animal Hospital Association. Because of these potential health risks, it's recommended to not feed therapy dogs a raw protein diet. These are animals most likely to be in contact with humans who have compromised immune systems and could be more susceptible to illness, Cuevas-Espelid said. Lowman said cooked food and those which has a "kill step" will be less likely to contain foodborne bacteria. Typically this is a heating step to ensure that pathogens are killed. Wynn said reputable raw diet companies will test products to make sure there are no pathogens as part of their quality control procedures. "Raw diets are typically higher in protein and fat. They tend to be they don't have to be but they tend to have low starch or no starch in them. That's a very calorie-dense diet and high in fat," Wynn said. "If you're talking from a nutrient point of view, it's a very efficient way to keep weight on a dog with high metabolism." She said raw meat can help keep weight on some show breeds of canines and felines, as well as those with high activity levels, such as herding breeds and sled dogs. Overweight animals and those with certain diseases, however, should steer clear of raw and other highfat diets. "There is no proof that a raw diet is better than a processed diet," Wynn said. "There are raw diets that are dangerous, but there are raw diets that could be good. Raw diets come with problems because there are so many types of raw diets." Possible problems include injury from whole bone ingredients, though Wynn said reputable companies will finely grind bones ingredients, and diets not being properly balanced. The latter is a problem in homemade raw diets, she said. Making homemade pet treats is a popular trend, and Lowman said consumers should be aware that the sale of pet food and treats is regulated in Georgia. "They all need to have a license and it's going to have a product registration associated with it," he said. "If you're a baker, and you use the leftovers to make dog treats and you put those for sale on your counter, it's regulated. If you give it away, that's not. But the first time you sell it or barter it, you need to be licensed." The license is to make sure pet foods and labels meet AAFCO standards. Required label components include name and purpose, such as Beef Dog Food or Beef Flavor Dog Food; name of animal species the product is for; net quantity of both weight and volume; a guarantee analysis, which lists the percentage of each nutrient in the food; an ingredient statement, listed in order of predominance by weight; a nutritional adequacy statement showing food is complete and balanced for a particular life stage; feeding directions; and the name and address of the manufacturer or distributor. Wynn said to research the company thoroughly. "I'm looking for a company that has been around for a long time. They must have a nutritionist formulating all the foods, preferably a veterinary clinical nutritionist that they work with or on staff," Wynn said. "You can't make a determination of how good a food is just by the label."
