BLACK, COMMISSIONER WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 2014 VOL. 97, NO. 21 COPYRIGHT 2014 State's sweet potato growers cater to area restaurants, retailers A Butts County sweet potato farmer shows off part of his harvest. Sweet potatoes are growing in popularity as restaurant fare, and Georgia producers are trying their hand to answer the call for this starchy vegetable. Photo courtesy Sharon Dowdy, Georgia FACES By Dallas Duncan A hamburger, in many Georgia restaurants, comes with a side of fries but more and more restaurants are adding a sweeter variety to the mix. "You go into restaurants now and you get a choice of a baked potato or sweet potato fries," said Boyd Hagerson, a producer in Plains, Ga. "I think it's something that the market is growing into." In fact, Hagerson first began growing sweet potatoes to help supply local restaurants. "I'd been toying with it in my garden, and I provided everybody in our church with sweet potatoes," he said. One metro Atlanta-area chef was so inspired by the crop that it became the namesake for her Stone Mountain, Ga., restaurant: Sweet Potato Caf. "I have always loved sweet potatoes," Chef Karen Patton said. "Growing up, my mother prepared them all the time and when I was contemplating a name for the restaurant and thinking about a menu, it became quite clear to me that I had several recipes that contained sweet potatoes. That is actually how I came up with the name of the restaurant." Patton's menu includes sweet potato pie, fries, loaded sweet potatoes and sweet potato hash. "Occasionally we have a sweet potato salsa, and I think the most unusual is the sweet potato hummus," she said. "For additional desserts, I have a sweet potato cheesecake, sweet potato cobbler and sweet potato pound cake." The nutritional content of sweet potatoes is what makes them so popular, Patton believes. According to the US Department of Agriculture, one medium sweet potato baked in its skin, without salt, contributes 37 percent of the daily value of vitamin C and 15 percent of the daily value of dietary fiber. It also has four times the recommended daily intake for vitamin A, according to the North Carolina Sweet Potato Commission. Patton sources locally from farmers in a 100-mile radius of her restaurant.

Thousands flock to 25th Georgia National Fair, Georgia Grown Building By Dallas Duncan There was a lot to celebrate during the silver anniversary of the Georgia National Fair this month in Perry, Ga., including an all-new Georgia Grown Building. The 2014 building plans expanded upon the previous year's attraction, with an expanded pavilion store, contests, demonstrations and interactive kids' activities, said Jack Spruill, the Department's Marketing Division director. The commercial exhibit area, in addition to welcoming Georgia Grown members as vendors, featured four 80-inch flat-screen TVs playing ads that featured agribusinesses, commodities and more. "It's going to be touting the economic benefit that those companies are to Georgia in terms of more sales, the footprint of the busi- nesses and why they're important to Georgia's economy," Spruill said. But the "biggest effort" in this year's building was hard to miss. "We launched into the project known as the Seasons and Faces of Georgia Agriculture. In this exhibit, which is roughly 25 percent of the Georgia Grown Building, there are over 1,200 square feet of pictures and displays of Georgia agriculture and Georgia agriculturalists," Spruill said. More than 120 producers are featured along with dozens of little-known facts about the state's commodities in the exhibit, he said. The Seasons and Faces display drew repeat visitors, some of whom came to the fair on the weekend and brought their families back later, said Happy Wyatt, manager of the Macon State Farmers Market. Even former Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue made a pit stop. The exhibit is crucial not only as part of the Fair's 25th anniversary celebration this year's theme was Georgia Grown but to share the mission and message about Georgia agriculture, Spruill said. "We found out last year, in the 11 days of the Fair, that a lot of people still do not know a great deal about the bounty of Georgia agriculture and why we grow what we do, and what is invested in these crops and what we get in return for these crops," he said. "What is expected yield? What is this yield worth? What does the farmer have to invest in that acre of cotton he plants?" The goal of Seasons and Faces was to give insight into the abundant economic impact of Georgia's agricultural industry, and to high- See FAIR, page 12 Mail to: Published by the Ga. Department of Agriculture Gary W. Black, Commissioner GEORGIA GROWN PROFILE: Regenerate Juice provides new stage for Georgia's rising produce star By Dallas Duncan Shawn Davis and Clara and Francis Spellman joined forces in 2008 to found Southern Press & Packing in Blackshear, Ga., with an ultimate dream of creating an all-natural blueberry juice so one of the state's fastest-growing commodities could be enjoyed year-round. "Regenerate is made from 100 percent pure Georgia blueberries and it was important for us to include the Georgia Grown logo and the meaning behind it on our juice label," said Davis, the company's vice president. "With blueberries being a major cash crop for Georgia, it makes sense we make every effort to keep our Georgia Grown products local." One pound of blueberries goes into each 10-ounce bottle, providing nearly one cup's worth of fruit per serving, with no additives, Davis said. The juice is now available in Kroger, just one partnership that serves as an example of its popularity. Southern Press & Packing also helped fund a new sports nutrition assistant position for the University of Georgia's Sports Nutrition Department as part of its ongoing mission to promote healthy, delicious foods. "Health and wellness for student athletes is a critical component to their training program," company President Francis Spellman said in a news release. "Our commitment not only celebrates the importance of qualified education and healthy choices, but also illustrates the impact local farmers can have with strong relationships to healthcare." Regenerate is also a common feature during Feed My School for a Week, and thanks to its becoming an approved commodity processor by the US Department of Agriculture in April, will now be able to be accessed by other Georgia schools. "In taking one of Georgia's top commodities and turning it into a value-added product that is shelf-stable, we have found students identify with the local product and receive the health benefits of the juice at the same time," Davis said.

Nathan Deal has declared October as Agritourism Month in Georgia, and Georgia is a plethora of agritourism sites in great vari- ety. We have close to 600 farms that allow the public to come and visit for recreational, entertainment or educational purposes. They are not limited to north or south, but are spread out all over our state NORTON and show some of the best parts of rural life. Find them by going to our website, looking for the state's green agritour- ism directional signs or asking your local chamber of commerce. Why are people so interested in agritourism? The general population is now several generations removed from the farm. Children and adults have no idea where their food comes from and how it gets to the grocery store. People are more and more interested in eating healthy and buying directly from the farm. They want to not only meet the farmer, they want to see where the product is grown and learn more about the process. And the public wants to spend days closer to home and explore their local area and state. Agritourism allows them to do all of these things and have fun! Agritourism has allowed many farmers to keep prop- erty that has been in their family for generations. They are able to earn extra funds by sharing their passion for the land and what they do. Farmers are big-hearted folks and when they are able to share that emotion and experience and see the eyes of others light up at making the connections, it creates life-long memories. It is fall y'all! Go experience it! Go pick apples, find a corn maze, cane maze or sorghum maze; go watch sor- ghum syrup being made in north Georgia or cane syrup in south Georgia; get pumpkins to decorate or make pies; take a hay ride; pet some farm animals; eat a farm-to-table dinner; get some local produce, jams and jellies; and celebrate all the things this great state has to offer. What is agritourism, you ask? It is reaching into a peach tree and plucking that perfect piece of fruit and biting into the flesh to feel juice running down your chin. It is getting lost with a group of friends, laughing and giggling, trying to find your way out of acres of corn. It is sleeping in a barn loft under an old quilt, impatiently waiting to be able to get up in the morning and feed the farm animals. It is a long trail ride on horseback through the woods, the meadows and the shore, anywhere. It is riding the hay wagon through an apple orchard or cattle pasture. It is sitting on a veranda with a glass of wine made from the fruit growing just a few feet away. It is seeing the wonder on a child's face at the feel of the roughness of a cow's tongue across his hand, or the fuzzy head of a sheep or the tug of a goat nibbling your shirttail. It is the smell of a fresh Christmas tree being cut and attached to the car as you stand around a bonfire and drink hot chocolate. It is experiencing and learning about life on the farm, past and present. It is seeing a potter's wheel turn red clay from right up the road. It is a garden full of beautiful things grown right here. It is taking something grown from the soil and making it into something wonderful on the plate in front of you. It is becoming a part of what is around you, wherever you live in Georgia. Cindy Norton is the Department's agritourism director. For more information about Georgia agritourism, visit www.georgiagrown.com or contact Norton at cynthia.norton@agr.georgia.gov or 404-656-3368. The 2014 Georgia Grown farmto-school programs are off to a great start. East Jackson Elementary School in Commerce, Ga., was selected as a Test Kitchen Initiative school. Faculty, staff and students kicked off the program with an Ag Day featuring costumes, educational setups and an entire menu of Georgia-grown fare. Debra Morris, school nutrition director for Jackson County and Chef Rich Friedman of East Jackson Elementary pose with some of the students who participated in the costume parade (photo 1). Meanwhile in the cafeteria, pre-K student Riley Embrick munches on his Georgia-grown lunch (photo 2). Just a few miles away, Danielsville Elementary School also celebrated the Madison County Feed My School for a Week pro- gram. Danielsville Elementary joined the program this year as part of the continuation of Madison County's participation from 2013.

I'm just a journalist who happens to work for a government agency. It's still my job to present multiple perspectives on features and news pieces. But there's one political thing I want to bring to your attention in this edition's column. Ladies and gents, please mark your calendar for upcoming elections and public comment deadlines! "Oh no," you say. "This poor, crazy editor chick is going to tell us to vote for Joe Q. Public, Jane Doe and everything else on her liberal media agenda!" But no, say I! Yep, this is an opinion column (as are all other columns that appear on this page you know, like the op/ed page in your daily newspaper). But nay, it is not a place for me to tell you who and what to vote for, because that's a) dumb and b) your decision and c) not my place. However, I do feel totally appropriate saying that every Market Bulletin subscriber, reader and social media fan should take a few minutes and utilize their rights to freedom of speech and voting this fall. I recently saw a graphic in USA Today that showed what students and teachers believed to be the most important first amendment rights, and the overwhelming majority said "freedom of speech." I'm sure many of you have heard about the US Environmental Protection Agency's recent proposed amendments to the Clean Water Act. Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture Gary W. Black shared his thoughts on the issue in a recent Market Bulletin guest column, and the Farm Bureau's "Ditch the Rule" campaign quite literally takes over my personal and the paper's Twitter feeds on a regular basis. I assumed that thousands of Georgians, both farmers and consumers, submitted comments during the EPA's public comment period on the subject. Imagine my surprise, then, when I learned that only 217,000 people voiced their thoughts on the proposed regulation, known as "Waters of the United States." Yep. That's it. That's like, barely 2 percent of Georgia's population, much less America's! Y'all, that is embarrassing. Whether you are for the proposed amendments, against them or somewhere in the middle, you have got to speak up! The EPA actually extended the public comment period to Nov. 14, which means you've got about one month after this column hits your mailbox to utilize those first amendment rights we find so vitally important! So let me challenge you to take a few moments and educate yourself on this (and other!) legislative and political issues related to agriculture, and then share your thoughts with the EPA and our federal representatives and senators. For this particular amendment (EPA-HA-OW-2011-0880), you can visit www.regulations.gov, email ow-docket@epa.gov or mail to Water Docket, EPA, Mail Code 2822T, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC, 20460 to voice your opinion. Our elected officials do very much care that we speak up. When I was a staff member with Cattlemen's, I had the chance to visit federal and state legislative offices and speak in person to people I'd previously only known through political commercials during election season. No matter if I voted for them to begin with or not, each of these individuals wanted to hear from myself and fellow Cattlemen's representatives. They couldn't represent us if they didn't know what we thought! And folks, it's almost even more important to voice your opinion on an issue if you didn't vote that person into office. They still represent us, so let's make it a point to do our part and make sure they represent us in an informed manner in every instance. Dallas Duncan is the editor of the Market Bulletin.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 2014 FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN 404-656-3722 ARTY'S GARDEN: A wing and a prayer PAGE 7 Watch Arty feed his rescued hummingbird at www. youtube.com/user/gamktbulletin I love watching hummingbirds. The little feathered rockets darting around the garden amaze me with how they hover and fly backwards on wings that move so fast they are a blur. Last October I noticed a hummingbird in my garden doing aerial maneuvers that alarmed me, however. It would fly, plop to the ground, fly and hit the ground again. It appeared to be bouncing. Something was wrong. I scooped the bird off the ground into my hands. Hummingbirds are small, but I didn't fully appreciate how small until I held one. It was a juvenile male ruby-throated hummingbird: the red feathers on his throat were starting to come in. His right wing was injured. An injured wing is serious for any bird, but for a hummer especially so. Hummingbirds feed mainly on the wing and feed almost constantly to maintain their high metabolism and to build up fat reserves for their long spring and fall migrations. What to do? If the tiny bones were actually broken, I feared the bird would be a goner. It was mid-October. Most hummingbirds had already left for the Yucatan and Central America. If he could be rehabilitated, would it be in time for him to migrate? Would he be strong enough to do so? Would valiant efforts to save him only prolong his pain and distress? I held him up to the flowers of a pineapple sage and firecracker vine. He immediately started feeding. I placed him in a container and took him inside where I made a solution of sugar water. I dipped my index finger in the solution, and the bird leaned in to investigate. Out came a thread-like tongue that began to lap it up. I could barely feel the tiny tongue make contact, and I wondered if my fingerprint felt like a washboard to him. After an online search and several phone calls, I found a wildlife rehabilitator with experience handling hummingbirds. I carried the little fellow to her in a dark box to keep him calm. I confessed to her that I had debated what to do. She reminded me that we are part of nature, too. We alter the environment and do things harmful to birds. Why should we feel guilty for going out of our way to rescue one? She also explained that if the wing was broken, and there was no way for the bird to survive on its own, she could euthanize him so he would not suffer. "He's fat; he hasn't been down for long," the rehabilitator said as she gently examined him. She was an expert and had seen hummers that were near starvation because they had been unable to feed. The fact that he was "fat" was good news. I was also comforted when she said the injury appeared to be a sprain rather than a break. She wrapped him in gauze to immobilize him and placed him into a container that served as a hummingbird ICU. A week later I received a welcome message: "Thankfully, the wing was just sprained, and he regained flight after some rest and relaxation. I have now released him, and I assume he is starting his long journey south for the winter." There is no way to tell if the hummingbird released into the October sky came back to Georgia or even if it arrived safely at its winter home. Life is full of dangers for us all big and small, humans and hummers. I've watched a lot of hummingbirds this year. When I see one now I sometimes stop to whisper the prayer I uttered when I when I handed that injured creature over to the rehabilitator and again when I learned of his recovery and release: "Godspeed, little bird." Arty Schronce is the Department's resident gardening expert and hummingbird advocate. He urges all Georgians to plant an assortment of flowers to attract hummingbirds. There are many options available at nurseries and garden centers. SWEET: More than 1,800 acres of sweet potatoes planted in Georgia last year From Page 1 Delbert Bland, owner of Bland Farms in Glennville, Ga., said that mindset is a great option for Georgia growers. "It's all about food miles anymore if you can grow something in this area and it can be grown in a closer proximity to what [a customer] has been bringing sweet potatoes into, you're way ahead of the game," he said. Bland grows about 200 acres of sweet potatoes. This is his first year expanding his farm's sweet success it's known for Vidalia and other sweet onion varieties into this starchy commodity. "They're doing very well," he said. "Sweet potatoes are an ideal crop because one, the land is ideal in south Georgia for them." It also helps that much of the same equipment and facilities used for onions can be used for the potatoes. That dual purpose helped to diversify Bland Farms tremendously, he said. Sweet potatoes were worth nearly $11 million in farm gate value last year, according to the University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. They were grown on more than 1,800 acres in 24 Georgia counties during 2013. "The key to sweet potatoes, sweet onions or anything else is having a market where you can go directly to market on your own," Bland said. "We already have a large customer base." Bland Farms' Covington sweet potatoes go directly to the retail market and grocery stores. Sweet potatoes were worth nearly $11 million in farm gate value last year, according to the University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. They were grown on more than 1,800 acres in 24 Georgia counties during 2013. The varieties of sweet potatoes range in color from white to purple, with shades of yellow and orange in between. Georgia's most popular varieties include the Jewel and Georgia Jet, according to the Ocilla-Irwin Chamber of Commerce. "I planted Beauregard," Hagerson said. "When you bake it and you cut it open, it's or- ange. It's not a yellow tint to it; it's just a pretty bright orange, a good looking potato." Cultivating potatoes takes more than just planting the seedlings, known as slips. First, potatoes are planted in beds about six inches deep what Hagerson's father specialized in early in the year. When the temperature warms up, the potatoes sprout, and producers cut the slips to plant. Once they're planted, sweet potatoes don't require much maintenance, other than some fertilizer and water and occasionally a spray to kill weeds. After harvest, the potatoes must be put in a curing room for a period of time. Hagerson harvested approximately 2,700 bushels from his two acres. Though he's only grown them for a couple of years on the farm, Hagerson is no stranger to the sweet potato business: his father grew them for the sweet potato house in Americus, and used to grade them using a piece of wood with different sizes of holes cut out. There are several different grades of sweet potatoes, including No. 1, No. 2 and jumbos. "A No. 1 is going to be about like a Campbell's soup can it's going to be about that big in diameter. I would say a No. 1 is about 2.5 or three inches in diameter," Hagerson said. "Then a jumbo is the one that's real large." No. 2 sweet potatoes are the smaller ones, he said. Hagerson is working to develop a local market for smaller potatoes, but hopes to have many jumbos this year to sell to nearby country cooking restaurants and individuals to make into pies. "I'm trying to get a market for all the sizes," he said. "There's too many folks in the country that are hungry." Though he only has two acres, Hagerson still got between 2,600 and 2,700 bushels of sweet potatoes on this year's crop. "I'm just playing with it," he said. `It's not a major money-making deal, I just enjoy doing it. I think the sweet potato market, as far as health goes, I think it's got a place." Fall intern Beth Mohler contributed to this story. FEATURE RECIPE: Oven-roasted sweet potatoes Editor's Note: This is a quick way to prepare sweet potatoes with a spicy kick! We served ours up with some Georgia apple slices for a delectable fall treat. The completed recipe serves four. Ingredients: 4 sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed cup olive oil 2 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes 1 teaspoon salt Instructions: 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. 2. Coat a shallow baking pan with olive oil. 3. Stir cubed sweet potatoes in with red pepper flakes and salt until the pota- toes are well-coated. 4. Bake for 30 minutes or until potatoes are soft. Stir halfway through cooking to make sure potatoes are coated evenly and do not stick.

There are still dates to be finalized, but the US Department of Agriculture is urging farmers to start considering their options sooner than later. One option is choosing between Agricultural Risk Coverage and Price Loss Coverage programs ARC and PLC, respectively which US Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack calls some of the Farm Bill's "most significant reforms." "These new programs help ensure that risk can be effectively managed so that families don't lose farms that have been passed down through generations because of events beyond their control," he said in a USDA news release. "Unlike the old direct payment program, which paid farmers in good years and bad, these new initiatives are based on market forces and include county and individual coverage options." ARC and PLC replace the former countercyclical payment program, said David Forbes, agricultural program specialist for the Georgia Farm Service Agency office. "PLC is strictly price-driven, comparing the average market prices for the year against certain prices set by statute," he said. "The ARC compares history of revenue, either by crop or for the entire farming operation, over a period of time to the revenue generated by the crop in a particular program year." PLC and ARC County options can be used by commodity on an individual farm, and ARC Individual coverage is a total farm program, Forbes said. Farmers have until Feb. 27, 2015, to update yields and reallocate base acres with their Farm Service Agency offices, according to the USDA website. From Nov. 14 through March 31, 2015, producers will elect for either PLC or ARC. Contracts for the 2014 and 2015 growing seasons will be signed early next spring, though exact dates were unavailable as of press time. "Price Loss Coverage and Agricultural Risk Coverage is a one-time decision for the life of the Farm Bill. Once you make the one-time election on your covered commodities, that's it; you're locked in," said Chris Chammoun, director of public affairs for Georgia Cotton Commission. "Insurance programs are year-to-year decisions." The Farm Bill establishes new insurance programs notable for cotton, peanut and dairy farmers. One of these is the cotton Stacked Income Protection Plan, known as STAX. "The new cotton program is purely an insurance program," Chammoun said. "The STAX program is essentially a shallow loss program. What that means is, it'll cover small losses from revenue, but if you have a catastrophic failure or a large failure, it essentially only covers 20 percent." STAX will be available in the 2015 crop year, according to the USDA website. It's based off area-wide revenue, calculated as price times yield, Chammoun said. Loss payments begin when an area's revenue falls below 90 percent of its expected level, according to the USDA website. "At the beginning of the year when you would enroll in STAX, there would be an expected price for that county ... and an expected yield for the county," Chammoun said. "If your actual county revenue falls below that 90 percent of what you expected, then it triggers a payment." Cotton producers can also enroll in the Supplemental Coverage Option, set to begin with the 2015 crop year, according to a USDA news release. Supplemental Coverage will be available for a number of crops, including corn, cotton, grain sorghum, rice and soybeans, and must be purchased in addition to an underlying crop insurance policy. "You can only buy [Supplemental Coverage] if you're enrolled in the PLC program," Chammoun said. "If you know you want insurance, you can't enroll in ARC." USDA created several decision-making tools for farmers, available online, Chammoun said. The tools will help producers choose between ARC and PLC, Cotton STAX and Supplemental Coverage, and for dairy producers, whether or not to enroll in the Margin Protection Program. This voluntary program provides financial assistance when the margin the difference between the price of milk and the price of feed falls below a farmer's selected coverage level, according to a USDA news release. "When there's a margin of $4 between the two, that's when this program is going to kick in," said Farrah Newberry, executive director of Georgia Milk Producers. Because prices are high, Newberry said she does not anticipate Margin Protection payments to kick in until 2016. But as the rules of economics dictate, when supply goes up, prices come down. That's when Margin Protection will come into play. "Next year, prices are not expected to be so great, but the year after that looks like we may have a really bad year," Newberry said. "When they start watching the futures market, when they have to sign up in September next year, they're going to have to decide how much coverage they can sign up for to get them through the bad time." Producers have until Nov. 28 to enroll for 2014 and 2015. Farmers that participate in Margin Protection must pay at least a $100 fee each year, and can select additional coverage during annual open enrollment. "Everything we've seen, this program will pay three times more than what we've had before. It's looking like a really good program for our dairy farmers when prices are low," Newberry said. "If they do not sign up this year, they can sign up next year, but once you sign up for the program, you're in it for good." The Farm Bill also provides new options for peanut growers. The peanut revenue policy, based off crop insurance policies available for other commodities, allows producers to choose between yield protection, revenue protection and revenue protection with harvest price exclusion, according to a USDA news release. Coverage levels will range from 50 to 85 percent. "We had been working for some time to get a policy that would work where the farmer could cover revenue as well as being able to cover yield," said Don Koehler, executive director of Georgia Peanut Commission. Producers can opt-in on the peanut revenue policy, Koehler said. "It helps in a situation where the market goes down and the farmer can buy protection against a declining market," he said. "Let's say the revenue number is $500 per ton. Let's say the market went to $475 per ton. That $25-per-ton loss, based on whatever kind of deductible he may have, is made good by the crop insurance he has." The improvements to the farmers' safety net will provide better protection to ensure farmers aren't wiped out by events beyond their control, according to a USDA news release. "It took us a long time to get a Farm Bill and longer to get this revenue coverage and crop insurance, but I think they're just extra management tools farmers can use to protect themselves against uncertainty and go out and farm for a living," Koehler said.

Black. "With over 120 faces on display, representing all of Georgia's diverse agricultural community, we hope this interactive exhibit helps to solidify the connection between the grower and the consumer," he said. Spruill echoed his sentiments. "People need to get closer to understanding where they derive these assets," he said. "We just saw a great need to educate the consumer on what the realities of Georgia agriculture are."

Black, center, is flanked by representatives from the Department, the Georgia Grown Commodity Commission and the Georgia National Fair as he cuts the ribbon to officially open the Georgia Grown Building. The building had a number of new features this year and even the Department's mascot, Georgie Grown, gave it two thumbs up. The 2014 Georgia Grown Building included a number of new features, such as the Seasons and Faces of Georgia exhibit. The exhibit showcased more than 120 Georgia farmers, hundreds of little-known agricultural facts and interactive pieces, inviting all who visited the building to take an active role in learning about the state's agriculture.
