ABAC celebrates efforts to serve locally-sourced food at on-campus dining hall

By Jay Jones

TIFTON -- Donaldson Dining Hall at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College is the site of a bold experiment where administrators have successfully sourced much of the hall's menu ingredients from Georgia farms and agricultural producers.
ABAC President David Bridges welcomed state and local leaders to a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Aug. 29 inside the dining hall to announce the college as a Georgia Grown partner. For Bridges, the event wasn't new. ABAC met its own goal to source 25 percent of menu ingredients from Georgia producers after the school assumed control of its dining hall in 2018 from a management company.
Bridges told the gathering that the school looks to increase Georgia-grown food and products to 50 percent of the food on the dining hall menu in the coming year.
"We thought, `We're Georgia's agricultural

college in rural Georgia. We send more people back to the farm than any other institution in the state. So, why shouldn't we set the example and serve Georgia-grown products in a Georgia-grown dining hall, to Georgia-grown students at a Georgia-supported college?' I think we all knew the answer before we really started talking about it," Bridges said.
Bridges added the goal was challenging. School administrators and dining hall staff had to create a new process to procure food from distributors and develop menu items to include Georgia products.
"Many people told us that we would lose money or lose our buying power in the market and that we just can't do it," Bridges said. "Well, that didn't happen, and we exceeded our goal since we took over operations in July 2018."
The dining hall initiative was coordinated with help from Georgia's Rural Center, which is located on ABAC's campus. Rural Center Associate Director Scott Blount said there was

Where agriculture and tourism meet, farmers find new opportunities

ALTO -- Think about agritourism in Georgia and the names Jaemor Farms, Mercier Orchards, The Rock Ranch, Calhoun Produce and Poppell Farms might leap to mind. From the mountains of North Georgia to the heart of farm country in Southwest Georgia and on back east toward the coast, the idea of the farm as a destination for entertainment and education is gaining traction.
"It's really all about the experience that someone has when they come to a farm. They take something away, either memories, they can take a product away, they can take the experience of having done something or seen something or heard something that they didn't know before," said Cheryl Smith, agritourism manager for Georgia

Grown, an economic development initiative of the Georgia Department of Agriculture.
Smith was one of eight experts in the field called to a daylong workshop hosted by Jaemor Farms in Alto Aug. 28, where about 20 farm owners who have or hope to start agritourism operations were schooled in everything from corn mazes to insurance. The workshop was funded through a USDA grant to the FarmAgain program administered by the University of Georgia's Cooperative Extension Service and Institute on Human Development and Disability.
Jaemor Farms is one of Georgia's greatest agritourism success stories. More than 1 million people a year visit Jaemor's farm market in Alto, which grew out of a roadside peach shed established decades ago.
"The reason agritourism is as popular as it is, is because nobody knows anything about farming anymore. They want that experience," said TJ Smith, general manager of Bagwell

Georgia National Fair celebrates 30th anniversary this fall

The Georgia National Fair opens next month for its 30th anniversary of celebrating agriculture in Georgia, nurturing future farmers and bringing people together.
John Callaway of Hogansville recalled the very first fair was memorable. His son had the championship steer during the livestock show that year. A few years later, his grandson, his son's son, also exhibited at the fair.
"It's been very special to us as a family having participated. Even with all of our kids and grandkids out of it now we still enjoy going back," he said. "It's a place for even the folks involved in agriculture today to come together. It's just something you do go to the fair every fall. It's a place where folks go to renew old friendships, talk and visit."
This year's Georgia National Fair runs Oct. 3-13 at the Georgia National Fairgrounds and Agricenter in Perry. The fair will go all out to celebrate the milestone with special promotions, according to spokeswoman Keaton Walker.
"The first 300 people through the gates each day will receive a promotional item that they can take to some of our vendors who've been
See GEORGIA NATIONAL FAIR, page 15

Every year at the fair, youth showing livestock in 4-H and FFA events lend their animals and their expertise to members of the Georgia General Assembly for the Legislative Livestock Showdown. The House took the trophy in 2018. Here, Rep. David Knight and his coach, 9-year-old Jake Barber of Decatur County, hoist the trophy with the help of Agriculture Commissioner Gary Black and Fair Board Member Foster Rhodes. (Amy Carter/GDA)

Notice to Our Advertisers
We've fielded numerous comments from advertisers regarding the new ad layout that was implemented in conjunction with an upgrade to our advertising software. While many readers say the new format is easier to read, many more have taken issue with our experiment to list ads by city first, rather than item.
In our Sept. 25 issue, we will be reverting back to our previous style of listing Classifieds by item first rather than location. As always, we appreciate your input and look forward to hearing from you. Call, email or write to us if we can be of service to you.

of Georgia Champion Trees is maintained which includes the tree's common name, species,

Seasoned tree lovers know that places such as Callaway Gardens and Savannah never disappoint when on a tree appreciation tour. Yet one can find Champion Trees in every nook and cranny of the state from the big sweet bay magnolia on Cumberland Island, to the American mountain ash on Brasstown Bald and the National and Georgia Champion Eastern Red Cedar in

the Lone Hill United Methodist Church cemetery and stands

56 feet tall with an 88-foot crown spread. Its circumference

is an astounding 251 inches more than 20 feet around! In

2018, this beauty captured the national Great American Tree

award, which recognizes outstanding trees for their beauty,

history and community impact. (For more information and

spectacular photos, visit thegrove.americangrove.org, an

online community for sharing tree planting experiences

and knowledge that will encourage others to create thriving

community forests.)

Georgie's Drive Large trees inspire awe. They create connections with
people and communities matched only by those made

alongside other natural resources. If you know of a tree that might claim a space on the state or national register, contact your local GFC office. In addition, the annual Great American Tree competition invites you to submit photos and stories about the remarkable trees in your life.

Thru Glennville Hello! I'm Georgie, the Georgia Grown mascot. I travel the state of Georgia promoting our No. 1 industry, agriculture! When most folks think of Glennville, they think of Vidalia Onions. Glennville is home to not only the old-

est Vidalia Onion farm in the country, but also the oldest

cricket farm in the country. Back in 1945, Gene Armstrong

caught a pile of crickets for fish bait and put them in an

empty sugar barrel with sand in the bottom. Three weeks

later, he looked in the barrel and found what he thought

were ants eating the crickets. But when he looked closer,

what he saw turned out to be baby crickets. An idea was

hatched along with the crickets. Gene's father, Tal, learned

how to grow crickets commercially. Then in 1947, Tal quit

his job as a plumber to open Armstrong's Cricket Farm.

In 1954, Armstrong's opened another farm in Louisiana.

Later, they expanded their operation again by selling oth-

er feeder insects, including mealworms, horn worms, wax

worms and super worms. They supply the needs of not only

Gate Corner: Renewal season is fast approaching

styles are discussed. This year the

ground color changed and the year 2020 expiration. All new

applicants will automatically receive a three-year renewal

($150). If you were not a valid GATE card holder in 2018 or

2019 during the renewal period, you will have to apply as a

new applicant.

The most frequently asked question we received this week

was about tax forms. Please understand that we are not CPAs

or tax preparers. We always ask that you refer to your CPA or

tax preparer for their expert advice.

The second most often-asked question for the week con-

cerned the calculation method for the $5,000 minimum rev-

enue requirement to qualify for a GATE card. This figure is

aggregate throughout the farming operation (ex., wheat, corn,

chicken, etc.).

Another common question this week related to out-of-

state purchases. If you are a GATE card holder that buys from

our bordering states, you can only take the exemption when

the purchase is made in Georgia. If you take possession of

the item out of state, you will not receive the exemption. Also

remember that our livestock animals are now considered for

category "C" long-term producers in the application process.

Until our next issue of the Market Bulletin, remember:

"Today we give Thanks for the food on our tables, the clothes

on our backs and the farmers who make it all possible!"

Tractor Supply celebrates 92nd Annual FFA Convention with limited edition T-shirt fundraiser

BRENTWOOD, Tenn. Tractor Supply Company's fifth annual FFA Convention T-shirt fundraiser launched in stores nationwide Aug. 29. For a limited time only, Tractor Supply customers can purchase a limited edition FFA Convention-themed long sleeve T-shirt to celebrate the 92nd National FFA Convention & Expo, which takes place later this fall. Net proceeds from T-shirt sales will go directly to the National FFA Foundation and will be used to fund programs and activities for FFA chapters across the country.
The limited-edition T-shirt has the official FFA Convention & Expo logo printed across the front, which consists of hexagonal molecules and gold rows. The molecules represent the innovative side of FFA, and the gold rows represent crops, serving as a tip of the hat to traditional agriculture. Customers can purchase the shirt for $12.99 (plus tax) at any Tractor Supply store. The shirt will also be available to purchase online with an in-

store pickup. "Tractor Supply looks forward to holding
the annual FFA Convention T-shirt fundraiser because it spotlights the future leaders of our country who are making their mark on the agriculture industry," said Christi Korzekwa, senior vice president of marketing at Tractor Supply. "Our customers and team members are inspired by FFA's vision to develop leaders, build communities and strengthen agriculture, and this annual fundraiser provides an opportunity for them to continue investing in causes they care about."
Funds raised this year will benefit three FFA programs: Gift of Gold, Living to Serve and Alumni Legacy Grants. This year is the debut year for Gift of Gold, a program that awards grants to chapters devastated by natural disasters. Living to Serve is a program that empowers students to positively impact their communities through leadership opportunities, and the Alumni Legacy Grants en-

able local chapters to help local

high schools build or strengthen

their alumni chapters.

In 2018, this T-shirt fundrais-

er generated more than $340,000

for chapters nationwide through

Legacy grants. Since the start of

this fundraiser, Tractor Supply

has raised a total of $1.1 million

In addition to being sold in

Crop insurance deadline nears in Georgia
Barley, canola, oats, and wheat growers need to make insurance decisions soon
VALDOSTA The USDA's Risk Management Agency reminds Georgia barley, canola, oats and wheat growers that the final date to apply for crop insurance coverage for the 2020 crop year is Sept. 30. Current policyholders who wish to make changes to their existing coverage also have until the Sept. 30 sales closing date to do so.
Federal crop insurance is critical to the farm safety net. It helps producers and owners manage revenue risks and strengthens the rural economy. Coverage is available for barley in Crisp, Jefferson, Pike and Walton counties. Coverage is available for canola in Bartow, Calhoun, Chattooga, Cherokee, Floyd, Franklin, Gordon, Hart, Murray, Polk, Walker and Whitfield counties. Coverage is also available for oats and wheat in select counties. Please contact your insurance agent to see if your county is covered.
Growers are encouraged to visit their crop insurance agent soon to learn specific details for the 2020 crop year. A list of crop insurance agents is available at all USDA Service Centers and online at the RMA Agent Locator. Growers can use the RMA Cost Estimator to get a premium amount estimate of their insurance needs online.
For more information about crop insurance, visit www.rma.usda.gov.

Survey asks fruit growers about chemical use

ATHENS The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service will survey fruit growers in 11 states including Georgia, Florida and South Carolina for its biennial Fruit Chemical Use Survey.
The survey will collect information on bearing acreage, pest management practices, pesticide application, acres treated, and rates applied for more than 12 fruit crops.
"Pesticide data makes this survey a vital tool for the entire fruit production sector in the United States," said NASS Acting Southern Regional Director Erika White. "I hope growers understand the importance of these data and will take the time to respond if they receive this survey."
The Fruit Chemical Use Survey will provide much needed information about current crop production practices in the United States. The results of this survey will paint a detailed picture of pesticide use as well as other pest management practices used by the fruit growers across the nation.
"Growers benefit from providing this informa-

tion because it is used to re-register products for their use, illustrate the industry's environmental practices and assure the quality of U.S. food to consumers here and around the world," said White.
Within the next few weeks, National Association of State Departments of Agriculture enumerators will contact selected Georgia, Florida and South Carolina growers to arrange in-person interviews for conducting the survey. The results of this survey will be available in aggregate form only, ensuring that no individual operation or producer can be identified, as required by federal law.
Survey results will be published in NASS's online database, Quick Stats, on July 29, 2020. This database and all NASS reports are available on the chemical use survey program website: https://www.nass.usda.gov/Surveys/Guide_to_ NASS_Surveys/Chemical_Use/index.php. For more information on NASS surveys and reports, call the NASS Southern Regional Field Office at 800.253.4419.

Market Bulletin Classified rules get an update

Documentation is required for ads listing farm animals
The Georgia Department of Agriculture enforces certain rules regarding Classified advertisements published in the Farmers and Consumers Market Bulletin. Our over-arching rule is that items advertised be farm- or agriculture-related. More important is the requirement that livestock owners provide documentation attesting to the health of their animals before we publish ads offering those animals for sale. Our goal is to protect the viability of Georgia Agriculture and the farmers and consumers who look to us as a reputable venue for buying and selling goods and services.
As part of our year-long transition to a new software platform that will modernize production of this paper, we've been working with various divisions of the GDA and other state agencies to update the rules that govern Classified advertisements submitted for publication. Those rules are accessible online at http://www.agr.georgia.gov/advertisinginformation.aspx, and will be published in the paper periodically as space allows.
Animals in General: Animals advertised for sale must be healthy and free of disease to protect consumers from

purchasing unhealthy animals, and to prevent the spread of disease to other animals.
Out-of-State Animals: To ensure consumers are purchasing healthy animals and to protect the health of animals already in Georgia, out-of-state animals must meet all Interstate Animal Health Movement Requirements along with other requirements for specific species.
Goats and Sheep, Swine, and Poultry/ Fowl for sale: Licenses and health requirements for these categories are in place to protect the livestock industry from disease and prevent the spread of disease. These regulations also assist in monitoring the movement of the animals throughout the state. Certain requirements in these categories comply with federal law.
Equine for Sale: According to the rules of the Georgia Department of Agriculture Animal Industry Division, equine being sold must test negative for equine infectious anemia within the previous 12 months, and the original test record issued by the laboratory must be transferred to the new owner.
Boarding Facilities: Rules regarding stables in the Georgia Animal Protection

Act set a standard by which equine should be cared for. Boarding and breeding facilities must be licensed to confirm they are adhering to these rules and are caring for equine in a humane manner.
Poultry/Fowl Requiring Permit/License: Wood ducks are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which was enacted to preserve the populations of native birds in the United States. Under this law, it is illegal to sell any protected birds without a valid federal permit. Georgia law does not allow for quail to be used for commercial purposes unless it is a quail that has been hatched and raised in a pen or coop. The Commercial Quail Breeder's License assures the birds being sold satisfy these requirements.
Non-traditional Livestock: The Georgia Department of Agriculture follows regulations set in place by the United States Department of Agriculture. Since both Brucellosis and Tuberculosis are contagious and can be transmissible to humans, certain species of nontraditional livestock for sale must be accompanied by negative tests. Identification of individual animals allows for easy traceability of movement and helps prevent the spread of disease.

Ag Seed for Sale: A current state laboratory report verifies the seed for sale has reliable quality as well as accurate labeling information. The accuracy of the required labeling information allows consumers to make informed decisions before purchasing.
Flowers Requiring Permits: A permit to sell protected plants is required to maintain the population of such plants and keep them from extinction by trade. Ginseng is protected under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, so dealers and growers must register with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR) annually. This allows for the DNR to keep track of growing and selling, as well as protect ginseng from extinction.
Fish and Supplies: Grass carp are a non-native species in Georgia. To prevent grass carp from reproducing and becoming an invasive species, breeders must obtain a Wild Animal License that ensures the carp being sold are sterile. It is illegal to catch and sell game fish from public waters. Entities producing and selling these fish must have an Aquaculture Registration Permit that certifies they were raised domestically.

ABAC: From farm to students' tables

buy-in from students to producers from the beginning. He said that enthusiasm overcame a lot of the challenges.
"It's the perfect place to have the first Georgia Grown dining hall here at ABAC, and we hope that other USG institutions will follow our lead," Blount said. "There are certainly other institutions in the system that are larger than ABAC that would make a huge impact on Georgia farmers if they consciously buy Georgia-Grown products."
Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Gary Black congratulated ABAC on their success and in joining the Georgia Grown program.
"It is one thing to say that you support Georgia agriculture, but to actually fuel your students with Georgia-grown food that's taking your commitment to a whole new level, and that is precisely what ABAC has done with this project."
It was fried chicken day at Donaldson Dining Hall during the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Along with the typical entrees and side dishes found at a college cafeteria, Georgia Grown Executive Chef Holly Chute created a special lunch of barbeque chicken sandwiches with sweet chili slaw, sweet potato fries and Georgia Grown seasonings.
Ricky Sparkman, president of Sparkman's Cream Valley in Moultrie, was among the guests attending the event in the dining hall. Sparkman's supplies ABAC dining services with milk and ice cream products straight from their operation less than 40 miles from campus. An ABAC alumnus, Sparkman said he is proud of having his new connection with the school.
"It's an honor to be part of the vision that ABAC has put together," Sparkman said, shortly after attendees toasted that vision with jars of his company's chocolate milk. "To have come here as a student myself, then to get to come back to do business it's surreal."

Georgia National Fair: Youth programs shine this fall

with us for 30 years and receive a food item," Walker said. "We're still working on some stuff behind the scenes that we can roll out soon. That will be one item we will do to play on the iteration of threes 300, the thirtieth and the third through the thirteenth."
The fair will again offer a wide array of entertainment options and information exhibits this fall. The concert series includes something for everyone each night and hosts national acts like The Oakridge Boys (Oct. 7), Gin Blossoms (Oct. 8) and Little Anthony and the Imperials (Oct. 3). All performances are free with the purchase of a gate entrance. Seating will be on a first-come basis.
The fair is also continuing its education mission this fall by hosting its first-ever special needs livestock show on Oct. 8. More than 20 school groups will come to the fair and each group will choose a classmate to compete in the show.
"They will spend all morning with the animal learning about it, learning how to take care of it and then they will actually go and compete in an actual true livestock competition," Walker said.
The new show for special needs students added to the youth competitions and exhibitions is one of the many things Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Gary Black said he takes great pride in each year.
"It thrills me that the Georgia National Fairgrounds and Agricenter is likened to a family homeplace of sorts. The Agricenter has raised one generation and now we are witnessing them come back with their kids

trying to instill the same work ethic, responsibility and confidence they received through their fair experiences," Black said. "This positive cycle of youth development and training reinforces exactly why taxpayers made the initial investment 30 years ago."
Callaway is a member of the Georgia Agricultural Exposition Authority, which oversees operations of the fairgrounds. He also has been to every fair except the one in 1996 due to Hurricane Opal. He agreed with Black in that the fair's most significant impact on Georgia is its youth programs.
"We've grown a whole generation of young people that participated there. They may have worked somewhere else, but a lot of them are still involved in agriculture," he said. "That's the thing that is very pleasing to me to see the kids who came up through the junior programs. And while they may not be involved in production agriculture, they are involved in some phase of agriculture."

Agritourism: Opportunities in agriculture have special meaning to military veterans

Continued From Page 1

Insurance in Gainesville. Tammy Harris is banking on the public's eagerness to re-
learn farming as she develops a homesteading program at This Old Farmhouse GA, a cultural heritage museum in Franklin. Harris, her mother and daughter use the farmstead to highlight farming practices common to West Georgia in the early 1900s when the house was built.
The family, who live in DeKalb County, was looking for farmland to augment acreage they own in Roopville when they stumbled upon the overgrown site that would become This Old Farmhouse in Heard County.
When the trees and brush were cleared, the property revealed a farmhouse and several outbuildings, including a well house and corn crib. The family had more than a new home; they had a story to tell. They've been conducting tours of the property for two years and hope to start a homesteading program driven by daughter Kayah's affinity for candle- and soap-making.
"We hope to offer classes similar to what Foxfire does," Harris said. "That's Appalachian Culture. We're using the Tuskegee Institute model from 1914-1915, using their curriculum or catalog, designing carpentry classes, blacksmithing. ..."
Inviting the public onto a farm whether to pick their own strawberries, select and cut their own Christmas trees, stroll the vineyards and sample Georgia-grown wines, or learn self-sufficiency the old-fashioned way is a good way for a farmer to educate others about his business, find new markets

and supplement his income between crops. But it also brings additional risk to an already hazardous enterprise.
Smith, the insurance agent, said insurers will only underwrite certain agritourism attractions for example, ziplines if the operator is willing to obtain professional engineering for the build-out and submit to annual inspections. Some insurers say no to other activities, such as choose-and-cut Christmas Tree farms, due to the high probability of injury to participants.
Like farmers, soldiers are used to working daily with risk and routine, and more programs including FarmAgain are offering them opportunities to learn farming, obtain equipment and land, and heal the physical and emotional wounds of war.
Tim Doherty founded just such a program in 2017 after returning injured from a year-long deployment for the U.S. Army to Afghanistan. While awaiting the five surgical procedures necessary to repair the damage to his shoulder and biceps, he struggled with symptoms of PTSD and the transition back to civilian life.
"I saw and experienced a bunch of different things (in Afghanistan) and it was a very active lifestyle, a clear purpose, and when I came home, I was waiting for surgery and I was just sitting ... doing a whole lot of nothing," he said.
A visit to his sister's farm, where he learned to keep bees, gave Doherty "a new purpose" and the idea to start Doc's Healing Hives and Honey, a nonprofit that teaches veterans how to keep bees and then gives them the equipment, bees and

mentorship they need to establish their own colonies. So far, 52 veterans have graduated from the program.
"Each veteran we touch, either they do it just for themselves or they've turned it into a whole business," Doherty said. "One veteran bought a bee supply business in North Carolina. They would have never done that if they didn't take our course."
Doherty is currently developing Doc's Healing Hives while working as an assistant principal in a Sandy Springs high school. He's enrolled in several classes offered by UGA Extension and is looking forward to the day he can work fulltime applying the lessons he's learned to helping other veterans heal the wounds of war.
He purchased 13 acres in Morganton, where he plans to establish a learning center, campground and pollinator gardens. His biggest challenge now is patience.
"I want it all done now but I learned today it's better to do it in phases, so something is always new," he said.
And once it's done it will be a second homecoming of sorts for Doherty, an outdoorsman who learned farming at a young age but didn't fully appreciate its virtues until now.
"I didn't grow up on a farm, but my dad was from Kansas and he grew up on a farm, so our suburban backyard was a mini farm and I never enjoyed it because he made us do it," he said. "I hope this will be an experience people want and a place for veterans to rest, heal and perhaps find a new purpose, beekeeping."

Hurricanes are nothing new for Georgia agriculture
Farm protection is difficult, but the time to prepare is now

By Amy Carter

On Sept. 14-15, 1824, a major hurricane made landfall between Darien and St. Simons Island on the Georgia coast. At the time agriculture was a big deal in counties such as Camden, Glynn and McIntosh, where rice thrived in the tidewater region and Sea Island cotton flourished on the barrier islands.
Subsequently, crop losses to that unnamed storm were significant, according to a technical memorandum published in 2003 by meteorologists Al Sandrik and Christopher Landsea of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Their "Chronological Listing of Tropical Cyclones affecting North Florida and Coastal Georgia 1565-1899" updated the historical record on hurricanes in the Southeast by pulling accounts of known and unknown storms from the diaries and letters of planters, prominent historical figures and newspapers of the time.
William Page of Retreat Plantation on the south end of St. Simons Island had 245 acres under cultivation when the storm struck, according to NOAA's chronology, which includes this historical description of the storm's impact on Retreat: "... as the sea dashed around them with all ... [its] fury ... until it had leveled to the earth the hospital, storehouse ... cotton and corn-house, with many out buildings, crushing their carriage, carts and wagons, drowning their cattle and other stock and spreading wild confusion ..."
On the north end of the island, John Couper at Cannon's Point estimated his losses between $50,000 and $60,000. At the time Cannon's Point was dubbed "Georgia's Experiment Station," homage not only to Couper's success with Sea Island cotton, but also his fondness for testing novel crops such as citrus trees, grapes, date palms from Persia, olive trees from France, mulberry trees for silk production and sugar cane.
Thomas Spalding of Sapelo Island another well-known cotton planter who is also credited with introducing the manufacture of sugar to Georgia reported "a wall of water six feet high sweeping across the island and losses of 40 to 50 thousand dollars," Sandrik and Landsea wrote.
The storm ripped the roof off William Carnochan's sugar mill and rum distillery at the Thicket now known as Tolomato Island just west of Sapelo. Although Carnochan never resumed production there, the tabby ruins of the complex still stand today.
Hurricanes are nothing new to Georgia agriculture. And even though the evolution of technology has made it possible to track hurricanes from formation to dissipation, farmers today are no better equipped than Page, Couper, Spalding and

Carnochan were to protect their crops and buildings from tropical maelstroms.
"We're doing what we can personally but other than watching the forecast closely and praying, I don't know what else there really is to do," said Casey Cox as she followed the progress of Hurricane Dorian across the Atlantic the last week of August. At the time, Dorian was forecast to plow up the middle of Florida and pass over her home in Camilla on a similar path to Hurricane Michael last year.
Cox was one of many Southwest Georgia farmers impacted by Hurricane Michael in October 2018. The storm made landfall on the Florida Panhandle and cut a swath of destruction through Georgia from Bainbridge to Augusta. Damage to various crops totaled $2.5 billion.
A hurricane striking the coast is a seawater, rain and wind event. A hurricane striking inland cities such as Donalsonville, Sycamore, Ashburn and Hawkinsville is a wind event with sometimes heavy and prolonged downpours. Both can be catastrophic to maturing crops.
"We are doing what we can to just prepare for that but unfortunately what's the biggest concern, especially after experiencing Michael last year, is just knowing that you are very limited in what you can do to prepare for a massive wind event," Cox said.
Sheila Rice never paid much attention to hurricane forecasts before Michael. Hurricane Irma another backdoor hurricane that blew in from Florida in August 2017 flattened the corn maze that is a fall staple of her agritourism operation at Calhoun Produce. But the corn, not yet mature, popped back up on its own after a couple of days.

When Michael came through in October 2019, the corn was mature and Rice was days from welcoming her first field trip.
The three-acre maze never stood back up, and Rice still without power after the storm improvised with 180 bales of hay she arranged in a maze for her youngest visitors.
"You think it's not going to happen this far (inland in) Georgia," Rice said. "We don't take it for granted anymore."
Also tuned to the ever-changing forecast track for Dorian prior to Labor Day, Rice was second-guessing herself about generators. She had thousands of bushels of peas and beans that had been picked, shelled, blanched and frozen for sale in the farm store when Michael hit, and only two generators to keep them cool. Both were acquired within days of the storm and were inadequate to protect her full inventory.
"I guess I should have been better prepared with generators," she said. "One or two days before I realized, `Oh, this is really bad.' Now I have two generators, but I'm thinking, `Well, should I go and get one more?'"
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Southeast Climate Hub is compiling a technical manual to guide livestock and produce growers through preparation for and recovery from potential hurricane impacts. The official manual is scheduled for release in early 2020, but USDA released links to a draft version on Aug. 30 as Hurricane Dorian was approaching the Southeastern U.S. Access the draft guide at https://www.climatehubs.usda.gov/hubs/southeast/ news/hurricane-dorian-preparedness-and-recovery-resources.
Certain advice applies to all farms: l If you live in a hurricane-prone area, know which areas of your
farm are prone to flooding and plant accordingly. l Have a hurricane or severe weather plan for your farm that
includes extra supplies, feed, medicine and wound care (for animals and people), generators, chain saws and other equipment, in working order. Have fuel and oil on hand for those machines, also. l Keep trees pruned and consider removing trees that could fall and block a driveway or damage a fence or gate or knock down power lines. l Ensure that the primary driveway to your farm is adequately drained and designed for heavy equipment. Consider constructing a second driveway in case the primary drive is blocked or destroyed. l Inventory all equipment and buildings. Document crop status and field locations, including photos. l Harvest as much as possible of any crop that has reached marketable maturity. l Park irrigation pivots in an easily accessible area to facilitate repairs. l Secure loose objects.

My Tractor Story: A hit-and-miss search for an Unstyled "G"

By John J. Maloney
Doraville
Back in the mid-1980s my interest in single-cylinder (hit-and-miss) engines began. I enjoyed watching them run, but soon figured out they were very heavy to move around and difficult to store. I saw my first John Deere two-cylinder tractor and decided I wanted to own one. I could not only drive it for fun, but also use it to do many other things.
I started running want ads for old John Deere tractors in the Market Bulletin. This was right around the time the two-cylinder tractors became popular. Each time I ran an ad, I would get a number of calls. Over the next three years, I bought approximately 15 tractors through the Market Bulletin. When my daughter, Lisa, was about eight years old, she asked me, "Daddy, why are all the tractors you bring home brown?"
In 1989, I ran an ad in the Market Bulletin for an Unstyled "G" John Deere. I got a call from a man in Dawsonville who thought he had one. My brother Don and I drove up to check it out. When we got there, we could hardly see the tractor with all the vines growing through it. After cutting the vines off, we could see that the left rear wheel and weight were missing, with the axle buried in the ground. I had to build a metal frame to come-along the left side of the tractor just to be able to put a wheel on it. I paid $275 for the tractor. Back in 1989, that was a lot of money for a tractor in that condition, but I really wanted an Unstyled "G."
After getting the tractor home, I started to disassemble the engine and discovered the head of a valve had broken

off. Obviously, the farmer had a large field and must have decided to finish it running only on one cylinder. I can only imagine how it must have sounded with the head of the valve being pounded back and forth by the piston! The head of the valve that was bouncing around in the cylinder cracked the head. Therefore, I had to get a machine shop

to stitch the crack up. When I went to reinstall the piston, I discovered that the head of the piston was mushroomed. A friend at work put the piston in a lathe in order to take a few cuts off to get it back down to size.
My daddy always had a tractor to plow our garden and several of our neighbors' gardens as well. Daddy also used to bush-hog at one of the gasoline storage tank farms in Doraville. The last tractor my dad owned was a T020 Ferguson and it has now been in our family for over 50 years. I now own the tractor along with the others in my collection.
When my daddy stopped plowing the neighbors' gardens, I started plowing them. We even had one neighbor that my daddy, myself and my son, Adam, all plowed her garden. Three generations plowed our neighbor's garden with the same tractor.
My favorite tractor of all is the Unstyled "G" John Deere that was found in the vines of Dawsonville. It was built in Waterloo, Iowa, on Nov.11, 1941, then shipped to St. Louis, Mo. That really makes you wonder how it ended up in Georgia.
The other tractors in my collection are: 1935 John Deere B, 1936 John Deere Long Frame B, 1941 John Deere AR, John Deere 420 Standard, Farmall W4, Farmall Model 100, 1932 Worthington Tractor and my daddy's T020 Ferguson.
