Fulton County gears up for Master Goat Farmer classes Page 7 GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE GARY W. BLACK, COMMISSIONER WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 20, 2014 VOL. 97, NO. 17 COPYRIGHT 2014 UNDER THE SEA: Shellfish, freshwater fish top farm-raised seafood commodities By Dallas Duncan same water as their wild counterparts. Editor's Note: This is the third in a story series on Georgia's seafood industry. Next issue, read about the growing field of aquaponics, including a tutorial to create your own system. Georgia clams from Sapelo Sea Farms in Townsend, Ga., are served to diners at Atlanta's The Pig & The Pearl restaurant with house-made toppings on the side. Clams are the top farm-raised shellfish commodity in Georgia. Photo by Dallas Duncan Not all the land Georgia farmers grow on is above sea level. Some prefer to plant their seeds under water. "Over the past, I'd say 20 years or so, our percentage of farm-raised seafood has gone up, way up. It's over 50 percent now," said Sidney Shepherd, seafood compliance manager for the Department's Food Safety Division. Charlie Phillips, owner of Sapelo Sea Farms in Townsend, Ga., is among dozens of producers who raise shellfish and freshwater fish on non-traditional farms. Clams, like those Phillips raises, are the coast's biggest farm-raised seafood commodities, Shepherd said. Oysters are another one, and further inland farmers raise ponds of freshwater fish. To become a shellfish grower, Georgians must get an approved lease from the state Department of Natural Resources, said Julie Califf, a marine biologist with the DNR's Coastal Resources Division. Farm-raised shellfish from native waters are similar to their wildcaught cousins. In fact, the native hard clams and the Eastern oysters grown are the same species, said Dominic Guadagnoli, shellfish and water quality unit leader for DNR Coastal Resources. He said the only thing different between farm-raised and wild shellfish is instead of harvesting a wild bed, growers create bag or cage enclosures that protect the animals from predators. They're filtering the Farming at sea "Clams in particular have become a very valuable commodity in Georgia in the last 10 years," Califf said. "We've grown it exponentially. They plant the seeds and rear them until they're a harvestable size." Clams now make up nearly 87 percent of the state's seafood landings, Guadagnoli said. "Its value currently is in the neighborhood of $800,000 to $900,000. The industry as of last year was just short of a million," he said. "Clam farming has sustained our industry and continues to sustain our industry in terms of numbers." Phillips grows more than half of Georgia's clams on his leases. "Every spring and every fall we're planting and growing and swapping out stuff," he said. "We've been planting so many seed there's almost no stop time." Clam "seeds" are babies about four millimeters long. They're born in hatcheries where adult clams are stimulated to spawn. The larvae are captured and raised to seed size, Guadagnoli said. Seeds undergo testing for pathogens and visual inspections before they're brought to Georgia waters for planting. They begin their life on the farm in netted nursery bags, Phillips said. The bags are rolled out onto marshland and it takes two years to reach mature market size about one-inch for the variety he grows. As they grow, they graduate to bigger bags. Clam nomenclature is based on the size of the native hard clam, See FISH, page 12 INSIDE THIS ISSUE Farmland rent or lease ads.........2 Feature recipe............................. 7 Classified ad deadlines...............8 Visit with a Vet...........................12 Notice Deadline to submit ads for the Sept. 17 issue is noon, Sept. 3. Georgia 4-H Forestry Team takes third in national competition By Dallas Duncan The Peach State is known for four other Ps pecans, poultry, people and pines. A group of Burke County 4-Hers demonstrated Georgia's commitment to the latter when they brought home the bronze from the 35th annual National 4-H Forestry Invitational last month. "This group of young people were so dedicated and were very determined to do well at this competition," said Jane McDaniel, head coach for the Burke County 4-H Forestry Team. "We are just thrilled to place third." The team included Taylor Mizelle of Blythe, Ga., Jessica Dixon of Girard, Ga., and Cynthia and Lelan Eberly of Waynesboro, Ga. They won their area and, for the first time, the state forestry contest, in September 2013. They joined 12 states at the invitational held in West Virginia. Alabama took first place and New York second. Team member Mizelle, a rising sophomore at Edmund Burke Academy, started 4-H competition teams in fifth grade. "At the area [forestry] competition, we The Burke County 4-H Forestry Team, represented by Lelan Eberly (far left), Jessica Dixon, Cynthia Eberly, Taylor Mizelle and coaches Jane and Richard McDaniel, won their area and state competitions in 2013 and took home third place at Nationals in July.

Black, Commissioner GEORGIA GROWN PROFILE: Sutherland's Foodservice Inc. Distributor supports the Department through partnership By Maggie Dudacek, summer intern Sutherland's Foodservice, Inc., is a Georgia based, family owned foodservice distributor that was originally founded as Sutherland's Produce in 1947. It's been located at the Atlanta State Farmers Market in Forest Park, Ga., since 1959. Sutherland's offers a variety of products ranging from vegetables to steaks. The company also holds Georgia-grown foods that are produced by local farmers. According to Marketing Coordinator Chelsea Glass, Sutherland's is dedicated to being the most trusted, respected, knowledgeable and service-oriented partner in the industry. Sutherland's joined Georgia Grown to help spread awareness to its customers about the importance of both the Department and its program. The distributor's strong sense of community gives it the opportunity to partner and contribute to the success of its customers and their businesses. "We hope to gain more knowledge about how chefs can benefit from using Georgia Grown products. We hope to see many of our chefs convert to using some Georgia Grown products. Sutherland's would also love to see the schools we distribute [to] become more knowledgeable about using Georgia Grown products," Glass said. Since Georgia's leading industry is agriculture, Sutherland's Foodservice, Inc. understands the importance of being active with the Department in the agricultural community. James Eugene Sutherland Sr., founder of Sutherland's Foodservice, Inc., appears at any event he can with the Department. "We are blessed to be part of the Georgia Grown Partnership and we hope we continue to see more growth and knowledge of this vital program," Glass said.

Under this pro- posed rule, EPA jurisdiction will be expanded to include all waters with a "significant nexus" to navigable BLACK waters and to the tributaries of these waters. More disturbing, the term "significant nexus" has not previously been defined, so the agency will have the authority to decide how the term is applied. As the head of a regulatory agency I believe it is our responsibility to enforce the law through rules and regula- tions, not to create the law through rules and regulations. This expanded authority would give the federal govern- ment the ability to dictate how people can use their per- sonal property and farmland around these small, insignifi- cant collections of water. The federal government should not be allowed to grossly overstep its authority and direct farmers on how to use their land. These broad definitions bring EPA authority into uncharted territory in regards to private property, and if not withdrawn would grant EPA the right to monitor everyday activities on our farms. This revision will have a direct impact on our farming practices and could keep farmers from using or altering parts of their property, resulting in substantial profit loss. This hostile directive threatens to eliminate traditional methods that have been used on our farms for decades. For example, the expanded rules could result in a denied permit for a producer wanting to build a fence across a ditch or apply pesticides as usual. Increasing the scope of CWA would undoubtedly leave our farms at the mercy of EPA and also open the door to environmental activists to pursue civil lawsuits under new interpretations of the rule change. And while exemptions exist in the proposed rule, several questions arise as to the protocol for issuance of these exemptions as well as their long-term certainty. The economics of the proposed rule are a concern as well. In the economic analysis provided by EPA and the US Army Corps of Engineers, the two agencies anticipate the losses suffered by the government and regulated entities will be between $162 million to $279 million per year under the new rule. They determine these financial costs will be associated with activities such as administering additional permits and modifying business operations to meet new standards. The reporting agencies go on to estimate the benefits of this rule change to be between $318 million to $514 million per year. These benefits, however, are represented by "values of ecosystem services" and "reduced uncertainty concerning where CWA jurisdiction applies." Though the costs will be very real, I believe this assessment of benefits to be extremely vague and severely inflated. Georgia farmers will tell you there is no resource more vital to farming than water. That fact is why I respectfully, but so adamantly oppose this rule. Adding another intrusive layer of federal regulation in the path of farm families is unacceptable. Gary W. Black is the Georgia commissioner of agriculture. His office can be reached at 404-656-3600.

He's a guru of all things green, and I love it when he brings new flowers and herbs by the Market Bulletin office for us to try. There's also a reason I was an animal science major in college (the same reason why I do not write the garden column): I have a black thumb. Love ya Mom, but I come by it honestly. I distinctly remember Mom "planting" a sprig of ivy in a pot on our windowsill and, lo and behold, we killed it. And we weren't even trying! Somehow, the Green Thumb Gene that both Arty and my families are blessed with skipped Mom and I. Her mother, Nanny, plants flowers and keeps her yard impeccable all year long. Nanny has a penchant for antique garden implements and going out on Saturdays to Sanderlin Greenhouses in Appling to get new flora for her yard. Aunt Robbie, my mom's older sister, has a burgeoning garden in her suburban backyard where she grows tomatoes, cucumbers, flowers and even asparagus. My daddy is a master landscaper, although he's probably not going to tell you so himself. And just a few weeks ago we visited Nanny's sister and brother-in-law, Meme and Uncle Johnny, at their mountain home and marveled at their flourishing plant life. Y'all. Meme canned FIFTY-NINE quarts of green beans and FORTY-TWO quarts of tomatoes. I do not even care that it is not Associated Press style to spell out those numbers in a newspaper column that's how impressive that is to me. They grew most of that! So somehow all of these gardeners and green thumbs got stuck with little ol' me who can't even help her mama keep ivy alive on the windowsill! Cows, maybe, but corn? Yeah, no. Cows, however, are not exactly permitted in my Atlanta apartment complex. They're good with the two cats I have, but I don't believe the landlord would take kindly to a Shorthorn (I'm kind of partial to colored cattle) or a Guernsey living in my kitchen, even if I offered them fresh milk or apartment-raised meat in return for letting the livestock take over. Also, I don't have a balcony in this apartment, so there goes the idea of the cow living on the balcony and the idea of planting a milkcrate garden. To be honest, sometimes it is really hard to write about agriculture when you live in a place where it's difficult to actively take part in agriculture on a daily basis. I tend to want to change careers and become an artisan cheesemaker, a master butcher, a restaurant owner or plant a Satsuma tree, for example. So sitting in an office in a marble building smack-dab in the middle of downtown Atlanta is not always the ideal place for this girl. Neither is sitting in my apartment. I like to be outside. Carrying a baby goat in one arm and my camera in the other (and holding my recorder in my mouth because I've run out of arms). I like to follow farmers around the field like a talkative shadow. I like to sit in restaurants and hear from chefs about the food they're growing out back and the farms they source from when they can't grow what they need. I like to be up to my knees in salt water, my boots sticking to the seafloor as I walk to a bed of farm-raised clams in the rising tide, tripping and falling in the ocean when they get stuck. OK, so maybe I don't actually like that last example, but you get my drift and hey, it makes for a funny story. Thus, I made a decision. I am going to forge my own path to getting my hands and boots a little dirtier when I'm not on the clock. Maybe the apartment complex wants to start a community garden and they just needed someone like me to show some interest in the idea! And who knows. Maybe by the end of this spontaneous foray into Atlanta's agriculture scene I'll have figured out how to at least keep ivy alive. Dallas Duncan is the editor of the Market Bulletin.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 20, 2014 FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN 404-656-3722 PAGE 7 ARTY'S GARDEN: Cutleaf coneflower A perfectly imperfect perennial Sometimes imperfections can be endearing. One of my favorite songs is "My Funny Valentine." Its lyrics point out some of the flaws of the singer's beloved: "Is your figure less than Greek? Is your mouth a little weak?", but ends with the appeal, "Don't change a hair for me, not if you care for me." I feel that way about cutleaf coneflower, or Rudbeckia lacinata. When it blooms in late summer it makes me, to quote the Rodgers and Hart standard, "smile with my heart." The imperfection l love most about it is that its flowers are not perfect daisy forms, but look as if someone has come by a plucked a few petals off. This snaggletooth appearance reminds me of a painting of a flower a child would do or one done in the bold style of Picasso or Matisse. Cutleaf coneflower is sometimes called "tall coneflower" it has been known to reach nine feet in the wild, but is usually three to five feet in cultivation and "green-headed coneflower" to distinguish it from black-eyed Susans. Cutleaf coneflower is a translation of its botanical name, its lacinated leaves being a distinguishing feature. The height can sometimes cause a blooming cutleaf coneflower to flop over. Staking can prevent this. I often use a fallen stalk as an excuse to cut it back to make bouquets for myself or for friends. The blooms hold up well as cutflowers and the narrow stems fit easily into vases. I have grown cutleaf coneflowers for years and enjoyed them in the wild as well. They are native from Quebec to Florida to the Rockies. With the species being native to such a broad area, there are bound to be genetic differences within it. Some specimens will be taller than others and some will have larger or longer petals, or if we need to be technical, ray flowers. In Georgia you are apt to see cutleaf coneflower in moist soils at the edges of rich woodlands or in forest clearings. It will grow in full sun, but gets extra points from gardeners for being able to tolerate and thrive in shade. Many Georgia gardeners are looking for flowers to brighten dark areas, and cutleaf coneflower is a native perennial they should consider. Garden companions to plant along with cutleaf coneflower include river oats, ironweed, jewelweed, goldenrods, joe-pye weed, monarda and anise-scented salvia. At some university research station or seed company, plant breeders are probably at work "improving" the cutleaf coneflower. They're the same type people who stay up nights thinking of how to repair the crack in the Liberty Bell. Perhaps they will develop wonderful new variety, but I don't think I'll be rushing out to buy it. I'll stay with my funny, comic coneflower as it is. Arty Schronce is the Department's resident gardening expert. He is a lifelong gardener and a horticulture graduate of North Carolina State University who asks everyone to look at flowers with their hearts as well as with their eyes. THIRD: National forestry competition encompasses 10 skill areas From Page 1 said. Students must be able to name symbols and distinguish elevation change and distance on topographic maps; identify insects, plant diseases and tree species; participate in a forestry quiz bowl; take a written exam; display proficiency in orienteering, or compass skills; perform a forest evaluation; and estimate volume and board feet. Mizelle's favorite part was tree measurement, or volume. This requires foresters to find the diameter of a tree, walk out 66 feet from it and use yardstick-like tools called Biltmore sticks to determine the number of logs, or 16-foot sections, in that tree. "It made it really interesting at nationals in Georgia, we're used to flat, even land, and West Virginia is not really flat," Mizelle said. "When you have to pace out 66 feet on hills and ditches it gets interesting." Rebekah Bowen, 4-H and youth agent for Burke County Extension, said she was proud to have this team representing Georgia and Burke County 4-H at the highest level. In addition to third place, Cynthia and Lelan Eberly were 10th and eighth high individuals, respectively. "I have been impressed by the dedication these four young people have shown this year in preparing for the competition," Bowen said. "It is always a great honor and accomplishment to earn a trip to any national 4-H competition." Georgia's teams historically perform well in the national championship, State 4-H Leader Arch Smith said. "Forestry is such an important industry in the state of Georgia and we have a number of kids in 4-H that are interested in forestry. We have a lot of children who are participating in forestry judging and we're extremely proud of the team," Smith said. Mizelle said her team was so excited to hear their names called in the top three that they got "a little teary-eyed" and stood up so fast their chairs fell backwards. "It's the world to me," she said. "It is absolutely one of the best accomplishments I have ever done." Fourth year of Master Goat Farmer program comes to Fulton County By Dallas Duncan As interest in goat farming spread across Georgia, so did interest in learning more about the trade. This month marks the fourth year Cooperative Extension Services offered a Master Goat Farmer Certification class, and for the first time, it's in Fulton County. "I realized that there are many people with goats, maybe two or three, around the metro area," said Grantly Ricketts, Fulton County Extension agent. "There are many people interested in goats because of the ethnic foods, Caribbean and Latino, and there are also folks that realize there is a market for goat milk." People also get into goats for weed control, especially if they are trying not to use herbicides on their farms or lawns. "If you don't have the basic knowledge, you will not know whether you are doing it right and you are making a profit," Ricketts said. The Master Goat Farmer Certification first came together under leadership from Banks, Stephens, Elbert, Franklin, Jackson and Madison counties, said Robert Waldorf, Banks County Extension coordinator. Georgia's had a viable dairy goat industry for many years, but it was only 20 years ago that the Boer goat came on the scene, said Will Getz, retired professor and specialist with Fort Valley State University and the Georgia Small Ruminants Research and Extension Center. "It created a lot of excitement because they seemed to have some attributes that made them suitable for meat production, especially in the Southeast," he said. "In those early years, Georgia was ranked about No. 3 in the total number of goats." The state continues to rank in the top 10, and Extension agents saw the need for providing farmers with information and research. They did training for nearly a decade geared toward educating agents and teachers on goat production before deciding to do producer education courses. "Goat production is not really that easy. There's a lot of work to it," Waldorf said. "We feel like we're providing the information to improve their efficiency and their management practices, to make that bottom dollar figure higher." The topics covered during the multi-week course include nutrition, goat selection, pasture management, reproduction and parasitology. Producers take a pre-test during the first class and a final test at the end to see how much they gleaned from the classes. Once they've completed the required number of classes, they receive a Master Goat Farmer certificate and apparel, Waldorf said. "We have actual goats there to practice foot trimming and deworming practices and administering of medicines to the animals," Waldorf said. "There's a lot of materials to be covered. This is over a six-week period where we'll meet once every week on a certain night. It's about a 2.5-hour program each week." Bryan Dooley, owner of Rolling Hills Farm in Toccoa, Ga., called the program a tremendous service. "The people that don't take it don't understand how much information is out there through these professors and their expertise in the fields that they cover. I thought I knew how to raise goats and cows, but I was surprised," he said. "If anybody wants to start getting into the business of raising goats, even if it's just one or two, and they want to take care of their herd, then they should become a Master Goat Farmer. The goats and the individual will have an ease of mind." Dooley is a twice-over certified Master Goat Farmer and runs 75 caprines on his operation. Fellow Master Goat Farmer Shelby Quakenbush, a home-schooled junior from Commerce, Ga., went through the program to get FAMACHA certified. That's the system that allows producers to check the color of a goat's eyelids to determine if it is anemic, which helps make decisions on deworming, she said. That's valuable knowledge on her operation, Out West Boer Goats, she said. "The Master Goat Certification is very marketgoat oriented," Quakenbush said. "It definitely furthers your general knowledge about goats and the more you know about goats, the better off you are." FEATURE RECIPE: Trout tacos with broccoli slaw Editor's Note: Georgia trout can be caught wild or from stocked ponds. Put your day's catch in the spotlight with this easy, light recipe for a light meal that is perfect to eat in the kitchen or outside overlooking the river. This recipe makes up to 12 tacos. Ingredients: For the tacos: cup olive oil 2 tablespoons white vinegar 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice 2 teaspoons lime zest 1.5 teaspoons honey 2 cloves garlic, minced teaspoon cumin teaspoon chipotle chili pepper 1 teaspoon bay-flavored seafood seasoning teaspoon black pepper Trout filets Taco-sized tortillas For the slaw: Two 12-ounce bags of broccoli slaw cup cilantro, chopped 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh jalapeno pepper cup green onion, chopped 2/3 cup mayonnaise cup apple cider vinegar cup sugar 2 teaspoons black pepper Instructions: 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. 2. Combine olive oil, white vinegar, lime juice, lime zest, honey, minced garlic, chipo- tle chili pepper, seafood seasoning and half-teaspoon black pepper in a food storage bag. Add fish filets and marinate for a few hours in the refrigerator. 3. As the trout marinates, make the slaw. Combine broccoli slaw, cilantro, jalapeno pepper and green onion in a large bowl. 4. Whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar and remaining black pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use. 5. Bake fish for 15 to 20 minutes, or until it flakes with a fork. Fish can be flaked into pieces before serving or served as whole or half filet pieces. 6. While fish is baking, heat a dry skillet and heat tortillas up until warm. Wrap the tortillas in a clean cloth to keep them warm until time to assemble tacos. 7. Mix together slaw and a portion of the mayonnaise dressing. Reserve some dressing for tacos. 8. Place two tablespoons slaw in each tortilla and top with desired amount of fish. Drizzle dressing on top and serve.

Two-year-old clams like Phillips' are sold as littlenecks and ones sold smaller than that are button or pasta clams. "Here in Georgia, our farm-raised clams are raised in some of the most pristine waters on the East Coast," Shepherd said. "You couldn't find any cleaner waters to find our clams in." Saving a drowning business When Guadagnoli said clams sustained the state's shellfish industry, he meant it: as oyster production decreased throughout the 20th century, there wasn't much of a shellfish industry left. Georgia was once the leading oyster producer. The Peach State's decline as the "Oyster State" was due to disease and overharvesting. "When oysters spawn, there's a two-week period when the larvae is in a motile phase, so it's actually swimming around looking for a habitat that would be conducive for the rest of its life," Guadagnoli said. "The larvae are out there looking for other shells to settle on." He said oyster larvae, or spat, key in on limestone or calcium carbonate, the two building blocks of shells. They can land on live or dead shell deposits, known as substrates. Without a substrate to land on, the larvae die. "What happened historically, a lot of that shell was removed [from the water]. There were a lot of areas where all the hard substrate was removed," Guadagnoli said. "Common sense would tell you, you do too much of that and pretty much remove the ability for those animals to reproduce and actually settle on and grow into new oyster reefs." Today, Georgia oysters bring in around 15,000 and 20,000 pounds of meat, valued between $100,000 and $150,000 annually, Guadagnoli said. Oysters are not planted in the same sense as clams, but are considered farmed because of the lease requirement to grow them. Georgia oysters are traditionally harvested as clusters, Guadagnoli said. That makes marketing oysters difficult when restaurants want single oysters on the half-shell. "We have a lot of spat in the water," he said. "Because of the density that we have and because of our soft sediment, they tend to grow as clusters and tend to grow vertically as opposed to horizontally, to give them the ability to grow out of the mud so they can filter." To harvest clusters, a grower must chip away until they have two or three legal-size oysters of three inches. Guadagnoli said these difficulties are moving Georgia oyster producers toward a more traditional farm-raised seafood style of production. Researchers are figuring out how to grow single oysters, and that means having a Georgia hatchery producing seed adapted to the state's waters, he said. Once there's a hatchery, there's nowhere to go but up, said Justin Manley, aquaculture Extension agent and former oyster grower. "In my opinion, the oyster industries and market have done nothing but grow," Manley said. "The profit margins are a lot higher in oysters." Clams bring anywhere from 13 to 19 cents each wholesale, and single oysters range from 45 to 65 cents each, Manley said. Even Georgia's clustered oysters bring $1 per pound, which averages about 25 cents each. Farming the freshwater Georgia's inland aquaculture, in comparison, brings in more than $12 million a year, said Gary Burtle, Extension fisheries specialist and associate professor at the University of Georgia. "We have sports fish hatcheries that are privately owned, and then we have people that concentrate on catfish farming," Burtle said. Farmers with watershed ponds sell to haulers that take animals to fish-out or fee-fish ponds, and levee ponds' products are typically sold to processors or processed themselves. Georgia's main varieties of farmed fish are catfish, largemouth bass, bluegill sunfish and tilapia, Burtle said. Other freshwater seafood varieties raised in Georgia include ornamental fish, koi and aquarium fish. "There's quite a bit of money made stocking these recreational fishing ponds from private fish hatcheries," he said. "It's kind of a diverse industry." Most freshwater farms range between 10 and 30 acres of ponds, Burtle said. And things are looking up protein prices are going up, and feed input prices are going down, leaving the doors wide open in this part of the industry for more growers. "Right now we're in a situation where the people that are processing catfish are making good money and they want somebody to raise catfish for them," Burtle said. When raising fish, brood stock are kept in separate ponds and kept healthy and ready to spawn in spring. Depending on the hatchery, it's either the eggs or the fry small fish collected to be reared into fingerling size, Burtle said. The fingerlings are purchased by growers who raise them to be the ideal size for sport fishing or food. "When a catfish pond is harvested, those fish immediately go within a few hours into the processing plant and they're processed and quickfrozen on ice," said Patricia Duncan, director of the Georgia Center for Aquaculture Development at Fort Valley State University. "It's much quicker handling than seafood that's been out on the ship, unless it was caught very close to shore and they bring it in every day." Freshwater farmers are turning to innovative ways to market their products, going along with consumer trends of local food. "Some of our trout people, for example, are selling their trout through these more local discretionary protein marketing people in the Atlanta area," Burtle said. There's a similar movement with growers taking live tilapia to farmers markets. "They're taking advantage entirely of that desire for a fresh, local product," Burtle said. "It's something that provides a higher price so that some of these higher inputs can be taken care of, but it still requires quite a bit of knowledge in order to profitably serve those markets." Selling the fish live allows people to pick out their protein and decide how to prepare it themselves, Duncan said. "People want a fresh seafood item that you know what water it's been grown in, you know it's been fed with no additional chemicals or things," Duncan said. "This is a real opportunity for people because they can know the farmer." VISIT WITH A VET: Animal disease traceability rule summary for cattle and bison Visit with a Georgia veterinarian in this monthly feature. This edition comes from State Veterinarian Dr. Robert Cobb. The Department continues to work to meet the requirements of the Traceability for Livestock Moving Interstate rule passed by the US Department of Agriculture in March 2013. Animal disease traceability knowing where disease or at-risk animals are, where they have been and when ensures rapid response when an animal disease event takes place. An accurate and efficient traceability system helps reduce the number of animals involved in an investigation, reduces the time needed to respond and decreases cost to producers and the Department. This rule addresses requirements for identification and documentation of movement. The species covered include poultry, cattle, bison, sheep, goats, swine, equine and captive cervids such as deer and elk. These animals, unless otherwise exempt, will have to be officially identified and accompanied by an interstate certificate of veterinary inspection or other movement document when transported interstate. Interstate movement requirements for sheep, goats, swine and cervids have not changed. Identification of livestock must be consistent across the state and nation. Official individual identification standards were set by USDA to ensure each state will recognize and accept livestock identification from other states. Official identification consists of an official ear tag approved by USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, a metal ear tag, an electronic identification ear tag or registration tattoo or brand (presented along with the registration papers). As of March 2014, all ear tags must be manufactured with the official shield, and in 2015 all official ear tags applied to animals must bear the shield. Animals tagged with nonshielded tags applied prior to March 2014 will be recognized as official for the life of that animal. All cattle and bison crossing a state line will require the official interstate certificate or other movement document, as agreed to by both the shipping and receiving states. Dairy Herd Information Association official ear tags with the National Uniform Ear Tagging System number are accepted as official identification for dairy cattle. Cattle and bison requiring official, individual identification: u All beef cattle 18 months of age and older u All female dairy cattle of any age and all males born after March 11, 2013 u Dairy steers u All exhibition, show and rodeo cattle and bison of any age Cattle and bison exempt: u Steers, spayed heifers and cattle younger than 18 months u Georgia cattle and bison staying in Georgia Additional requirements: u Group or lot identification may be used for beef cattle and bison Livestock markets u Livestock markets are required to identify the identification-eligible livestock if they are not already tagged u All identification-eligible cattle and bison coming into a market must come to the market with identification, receive identification at the market or return to its place of origin u Cattle and bison going directly to slaughter (harvested in three days) may travel with only backtag identification u Georgia cattle and bison leaving the livestock market with an out-of-state destination must have an official interstate certificate of veterinary inspection u Cattle and bison may come from out-of-state to an official tagging site without individual identification, but when leaving must be individually identified and listed on an official interstate certificate of veterinary inspection or other approved documentation Producers are encouraged to apply official identification to their livestock on the farm. The more identification eligible livestock that are tagged prior to entering the markets, the more efficiently the markets are able to operate. This allows the producers to market their livestock in a timely manner. Tags can be found at official tagging sites, which include producers, veterinarians and livestock markets. Metal ear tags can be obtained from the Department. Electronic identification, preferably the 840 series, can be acquired from a number of vendors. To read the rule, visit www.aphis.usda.gov/traceability/. Requirements for equine and poultry traceability can be found there.
