Field Day at Southeast research station draws a crowd of growers eager for the latest research, varieties

By Jay Jones
jay.jones@agr.georgia.gov
MIDVILLE Field Day at the University of Georgia's Southeast Research and Education Center gave producers like Josh McCormick a chance to ask questions and walk among new cotton and peanut variety screening plots.
McCormick joined about 150 other producers on Aug. 11 for the annual field day presentations. He peppered researchers with questions about weed control and timing for planting. Afterward, he said he was glad he came.
"You just can never stop learning," said McCormick, who grows peanuts and cotton on his farm in Screven County.
The center presented the latest research on a wide range of concerns of farmers. Researchers with UGA's College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences gave presentations on pest and disease management of row crops, soil nutrition, precision agriculture technology and plant breeding and variety trials.
The 720-acre research center located in Burke County allows scientists from UGA's College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences to conduct year-round research on many commodities, including wheat and small grains. UGA Cooperative Extension agents also assist with research trials in the

area and disseminate timely updates to producers.
R. Anthony Black, superintendent of the Southeast Research and Education Center,

explained that producers have a vested interest in the work. Much of the research is funded by Georgia's commodity commissions through assigned fees placed on the

commodities at the time of sale. "This gives producers a chance to see
where their dollars are being spent," Black said. "They are able to come out here and see what's going on not only right here in our neighborhood, but a lot of these specialists here doing research are doing the same all over the state."
At one of the peanut demonstrations, Scott Monfort, a row crop researcher at the UGA Tifton campus, explained that many peanut producers across the state were behind on applying their first fungicide application because of the wet weather so far this year.
Monfort noted that August heat will "push this crop" toward maturity following a cooler and wetter July. Because of the weather's effects on crops, Monfort said this is a critical time for producers to be out in the fields looking for leaf spots and planning their inputs.
Wade Parker, agriculture and natural resource program coordinator for Southeast Georgia, presented the latest peanut varieties available to producers.
Several new varieties have shown promise during testing over the past five years for disease resistance and high yield. Wade noted that producers need to consider the maturity time of the new varieties. Some compared well with current growth at 145 to 150 days to maturity. Other varieties needed 160 to 170

Green industry contributes to well-being during the pandemic
Demand for plants rose exponentially during quarantine

By Ava Jane Teasley
2020 was a year of surprises, trials, and triumphs. But for divisions of the agriculture industry, it was a boon. While people quarantined at home, many occupied their time

developing their green thumbs. In 2020 the Georgia green industry saw an exponential growth in sales of plants, and that increase has continued into 2021.
Ben Campbell, associate professor and extension specialist at the University of Georgia's Department of Agriculture and Applied Economics, spearheaded an economic study of the effects the COVID-19 pandemic had on the green industry.
"There was an influx of people getting outside and working in their yards," Campbell said. "People practiced gardening and landscaping."
Campbell conducted his study with assistance from Julie Campbell, assistant research scientist from UGA's Department of Horticulture, and Alicia Rihn, assistant professor from the University of Tennessee's Department of Agriculture and Resource Economics.
They found there was a clear increase of eight to 10 percent in sales of plants and landscape items through the months of July to December at nurseries throughout the Southeast. Normally, these months are not busy ones for the green industry.
"We looked at how people's shopping changed," Campbell said. "A lot of people moved to an online or curbside platform of buying. Partly because it was forced, and partly because of convenience."
Nurseries across the state have sold out

of product much earlier in the season than expected, and even sold stock they would normally hold back for several years in order to meet demand.
"If it takes three or four years before a plant was ready to sell, they were selling it early," Campbell said. "There was demand, so they would sell it instead of taking the chance of holding it for a couple of years."

Sales of these young plants may produce a supply-side shock, forcing prices up in coming years because people bought a large amount of stock last year and this year, Campbell said.
Lanie Riner, executive director of the Georgia Green Industry Association, said that growers continue to produce high-quality

Larry For The Country: Fort Worth memories

By Larry Walker
lwalker@whgmlaw.com
Whether it was on the free juke box at the original LongHorn on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, or on public television's Austin City Limits, or the country music station in Miland, Georgia, I never hear George Strait's wailing Does Fort Worth Ever Cross Your Mind? that I don't think about the two Jerrys (Wilson and Horton) and the one Bobby (Jones) and that summer in 1963 that the four of us spent working at Texas Steel Company in Fort Worth, Texas. And I never hear The Old Rugged Cross that I am not transported back, in my mind, to that little country Methodist church, Pinehill, in Washington County, Georgia. I can see Grandma fanning and singing and Papa fanning and sitting and the memory is both warm and melancholy and there is

nothing I can do to stop the feelings or change the memories. Funny how songs do that to me and I expect to you, also.
Perhaps it's Nat by himself and maybe it's Nat and Natalie, but I bet you have memories unforgettable thoughts when you hear Unforgettable. It may be one of the most unforgettable songs of all times. It might be a man or a woman at a high school dance or a certain period in your life, and it may be sad, or it may be the song that brought you and your wife together, but I bet lots of you have memories of this song.
The Snack Shack was the gathering and eating place when I was at the University of Georgia back in the 1960s. It was located on Broad Street about a block from where the Holiday Inn Express is today. When Charlayne Hunter and Hamilton Holmes integrated the university, you could go to the Snack Shack any time of the day or night and Ray Charles' voice would be emitting from the Wurlitzer: "Georgia, Georgia no peace I find, just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind." I never hear Georgia On My Mind that I am not back, though briefly, in Athens during

those stressful and tumultuous times. Ray Charles did that to me. And, then it is to the floor of the Georgia House of Representatives with Ray Charles himself there on the floor, playing and singing, and then with our voting unanimously to make the classic, Georgia On My Mind, Georgia's official state song. I never made a vote I was more sure of and of which I was more proud. And when I die and at my funeral, I want my family to have Ray Charles singing Georgia's and my song.
It is not our song even if we have one. Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me by Mel Carter or Build Me Up Buttercup or I'll Be Seeing You or Alabama's Old Flame would come closer to being "our song." But I never hear Wind Beneath My Wings and the line "Did I ever tell you that you're my hero?" that I don't think of Janice. For those of you who know Janice and me well, listen to the words and you will understand why.
It was probably in January or February 1960 that Jerry Wilson and I were supposed to be at home, after school, resting for a Perry High basketball game that Tuesday night. Instead, we went to Fort Valley to the mov-

ie to see Sandra Dee and Troy Donahue in A Summer Place. When I hear Percy Faith and his orchestra do the theme from A Summer Place, I always think about Jerry Wilson and his 1956 Ford convertible and our trip to Fort Valley. I'm glad we violated one of `Fessors rules and went to the movie the memory is always that good.
I could go on and on. The Reverend Al Green and Tired of Being Alone. The Tams and Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy. Traces by the Classic IV and Frank Sinatra singing Summer Wind. One of my favorites is Barry White's You're My First, My Last, My Everything and two others are If You Don't Know Me by Now and Lady in Red, and what about Jack Green's Statue to a Fool or Jackie Wilson's Lonely Teardrops? My favorite "church song" is My Tribute, and for country music, you can't beat Patsy Cline's Crazy unless it's George Jones' song, He Stopped Loving Her Today.
Lots of great songs. Lots of memories some good, some bad, some sweet, some sad. But there is nothing you can do when the song comes on except to remember.

Georgia Ag Experience sponsorship opportunities available
Mobile classroom travels the state spreading the word about agriculture

Since January, more than 6,000 Georgia elementary students have enjoyed the ultimate farm field trip without leaving their schools. The Georgia Foundation for Agriculture is taking the farm to third through fifth graders statewide with its Georgia Ag Experience a 36-foot mobile classroom.
Using hands-on, interactive technology, the mobile classroom is designed to give students a virtual experience of visiting poultry houses, peanut and cotton fields, peach and pecan orchards, cattle in pastures, timber stands, blueberry fields and horticulture nurseries.
When students walk through the mobile classroom, they learn how farmers plant and harvest their crops, take care of their animals, and preserve the natural resources on their farms. There is also a station highlighting agricultural career options. All exhibits and lessons have been professionally designed by educators to meet STEM (science, technology, engi-

neering and math) curriculum standards. As the mobile classroom continues to
make its way across Georgia, the foundation for agriculture invites businesses to help it take agriculture to schools by joining the Driving Agriculture Sponsorship Program. Businesses looking to expand their visibility in their county, region or statewide will find the sponsorship program offers options for a range of budgets from $1,000 to $150,000.
Sponsors benefit from a wide array of recognition including advertising on the exterior of the GAE mobile classroom; mention in Georgia Farm Bureau publications, the foundation's founding organization; and direct exposure to students, teachers, parents, and ag stakeholders.
From January to May, the Georgia Ag Experience visited 29 schools in 23 Georgia counties educating 6,502 students and 352 teachers. Teachers and students at participating schools were asked to complete a survey before and after touring the

GAE classroom. The preliminary findings of these surveys show that 76 percent of students who toured the mobile classroom are now more interested in agriculture and 98 percent of teachers are more likely to incorporate agriculture into their class curriculums in the future.
The Georgia Ag Experience will visit schools in parts of North Georgia from Aug. 18-Oct. 4, 2021. The Georgia Ag Experience will be displayed at the 2021 Georgia National Fair in Perry Oct. 7-Oct. 17 and at the Sunbelt Ag Expo in Moultrie Oct. 19-21. School visits will resume Oct. 25-Dec. 10 in north, midwest, and southwest Georgia and from Nov.15-Dec. 10 in the Georgia Farm Bureau's 7th District.

Mercer Medical Moment: Sun safety is important year-round

By Kim Meeks, MS, MLIS Director of Student Wellness
Mercer University School of
Medicine
Many of us think about sun safety while doing summertime activities, but protection from the sun's ultraviolet rays is important all year. Most skin cancers are caused by too much exposure to UV rays, so it is important to protect your skin from the sun. Unfortunately, one in five Americans will develop skin cancer by the age of 70. Prevention Harmful UV rays can reach and damage your skin even on cloudy days. Just like checking the weather, look also at the UV index when preparing to spend time outdoors. If the UV index is 3 or higher in your area, protect your skin from too

much exposure to the sun. Avoid going outside during peak times for UV rays, which
are strongest from 10am to 4pm. Wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher
and reapply regularly. Clothing also provides great protection. Look for clothing
that is labeled UPF, which stands for ultraviolet protection factor. Wear a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses. There is a common misconception that people with darker skin tones don't need to worry about skin cancer but that's not true. Anyone can get sunburned. If you've had more than five sunburns, your risk for melanoma doubles. Those more at risk for skin cancer include people who: Spend a lot of time in the sun, or those who have been sunburned. Have light-colored skin, hair, and eyes. Have a family member who has had skin cancer.

Are over the age of 50. Early Detection
When caught and treated early, skin cancers are highly curable. Your best chance of seeing skin changes early is by examining your skin monthly. Don't forget to check your scalp, ears, and in between your fingers and toes. Things to look for include: A growth that increases in size and appears pearly, trans-
parent, tan, brown, black, or multicolored. A mole, birthmark, or brown spot that increases in size,
thickness, changes color or texture, or is bigger than a pencil eraser. A spot or sore that continues to itch, hurt, crust, scab, or bleed or does not heal within three weeks. Skin cancer prevention and early detection starts with you, but it's also good to ask your healthcare provider for help. If possible, make an annual dermatology appointment for a thorough skin check.

Researchers target new virus threatening cotton crops

By Maria M. Lameiras
The University of Georgia cotton research team identified 24 Georgia counties where the presence of cotton leafroll dwarf virus has been confirmed from commercial fields and UGA research farms during 2018-2019.
While aphids aren't a direct threat to cotton plants, they can carry a persistent virus that is difficult to control and can cause significant losses in one of Georgia's most important crops.
First identified in Alabama in 2017, cotton leafroll dwarf virus which causes leaf reddening, crinkling and curling, as well as deformation of cotton bolls started spreading quickly. By 2019, it had been detected in every state of the cotton-producing region east of Texas, including Georgia. Cotton leafroll dwarf virus is related to the virus that causes cotton blue disease, which

has been endemic in cotton crops in Argentina and Brazil, causing yield losses up to 80 percent.
To better understand the genetic diversity of the cotton leafroll dwarf virus population, the team mapped the near-complete genomes of six virus samples from Georgia and one from Alabama to compare with samples from other areas in the U.S., South America and China.
While cotton leafroll has not caused as much yield loss in Georgia as in other cotton-growing regions, avoiding the virus to prevent potential yield loss is an important focus of research for Sudeep Bag, assistant professor of crop virology in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences at the UGA's Tifton campus. In March, Bag published a paper describing the virus in the journal Crops and Soils with UGA Cooperative Extension entomologist Phillip Roberts and UGA plant pathology professor Bob Kemerait.
Because the virus has spread rapidly throughout the Cotton Belt and has been detected in both symptomatic and asymptomatic cotton plants and because there are

not yet reliable chemical controls for either the aphids that carry the disease or the virus itself Bag said avoidance and removal of alternate hosts are currently the best recommendations based on the team's research.
"Until we had knowledge of the virus, aphids had not been a problem to cotton growers. It's not the pest it's the virus that is the problem," said Bag, adding that research into chemical control for the virus is not developed enough to help producers currently dealing with the disease.
Since 2018, the researchers have tracked the virus extensively in Georgia cotton fields and have discovered that the virus is able to survive in harvested cotton stalks in the field over the winter. It is a common practice to leave cotton stalks in the field after harvest, then till them into the soil before the next season's planting. But it appears to be time to rethink that practice.
"Many growers leave the cotton stalks in the field after all of the bolls are harvested. The general thinking is that winter will come, the freezing weather will kill the plant and the virus (but) based on what we have learned in the past year, winter temperatures

are often not cold enough to kill all of the virus in South Georgia," Bag said.
Field testing over the past year has shown that winter temperatures were not enough to kill all of the plants, allowing the virus to remain viable. Once those stalks are tilled under and new cotton is planted, the virus is then able to infect the new plants.
"Growers should remove those stalks as soon as possible after harvest. We understand this adds an extra expenditure for growers in an already expensive farming operation, but it is about trying to avoid a virus and minimizing its inoculum in nature, which could cause heavy losses in the next crop," said Bag, adding that his team found that the virus had survived in 75 percent of the cotton stalks left in one field tested for the study.
Additionally, researchers have identified at least 23 common weeds that can carry the virus between crop plantings.
"These weeds are not all winter weeds, some fall across the seasonal and calendar year. Apart from the cotton plants, the virus is surviving on those plant species growing close to the cotton fields," Bag said. "Growers need to avoid or control those weed species in their cotton fields."
The results, published this summer in the journal Crop Protection, recommend weed control, conservation tillage and field sanitation by removing spent cotton stalks to help growers avoid or mitigate the virus. The research is a combined effort of the UGA Extension Cotton Team, and is supported by the Georgia Cotton Commission, Georgia Farm Bureau, and Cotton Incorporated.

Georgie's Drive Thru the
U.S. National Tick Collection
Hello! I'm Georgie, the Georgia Grown mascot. I travel the state of Georgia promoting our No. 1 industry, agriculture! Have you ever heard the expression, "Like a tick on a hound dog?" Trust me, that is a very good sight picture. And did you know

that there is such a thing as the world's largest curated tick collection? The oldest specimens in the collection are wood ticks found in Bitter Root Valley, Montana, and studied as research all the way back in 1905. Dr. Howard Ricketts and his team discovered that this species, also called the brown dog tick (Yikes!), carried Rocky Mountain spotted fever and could transmit it to humans. The scientists saved their specimens and began collecting ticks from around the world in the Rocky Mountain Lab in nearby Hamilton, Montana. When the collection was donated to the Smithsonian Institution in 1983, it became known as the U.S. National Tick Collection. After the collection was closed to the public in 1990, its curator, Dr. James Keirans, and Dr. James Oliver moved the collection to Statesboro. Today, the collection is still growing and studied inside the Math and Physics Building on the campus of Georgia Southern University, near Beautiful Eagle Creek.

Georgia Southern is home to more than just eagles. (Lee Lancaster/GDA)

Georgia Forestry Commission firefighters go west
Forestry crews join thousands across the country to battle wildfires

PAGE 15

Since June, the Georgia Forestry Commission has dispatched 60 personnel to the western United States to assist in fighting wildfires. The latest cadre from Georgia traveled in early August to the Summit Trail Fire near Inchelium, Wash., where they were assigned to various duties and posts in surrounding areas.
"Georgia is extremely grateful to the brave men and women of the Georgia Forestry Commission for sharing their time and expertise," said Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp. "Many states have come to our aid in times of emergency, and it's a privilege to be able to return the favor."
According to the National Interagency Fire Center, there are 108 large fires currently burning across the U.S. More than 25,200 wildland firefighters and overhead support are committed to these incidents.
Georgia Forestry Commission personnel are highly skilled and well trained to meet required needs of wildfire

response. Agency staff that responds to incidents, including firefighters and overhead support, must complete required training and educational courses throughout the year to maintain their qualifications. Firefighters are held to rigorous fitness standards, ensuring they can work 16-hour days in adverse conditions while hiking through rugged terrain. Many Georgia crew members have served multiple assignments in previous years, gathering valuable experience they apply away and at home.
"Georgia has been receiving a good amount of rain, which has lowered our fire danger statewide," said Georgia Forestry Commission Director Tim Lowrimore. "That makes it possible for us to share personnel and resources with other states in times of need."
Due to significant wildfire activity in multiple locations, the National Preparedness Level was raised to Level 5 in mid-July by the National Multi-Agency Coordinating Group.

Preparedness levels are dictated by vegetative fuel, weather conditions, wildfire activity and fire suppression resource availability. Level 5 is the highest level on the fire activity scale, and July 14 is the earliest in the year it's been raised to 5 in a decade.

days, which would better suit early planting. For cotton, researchers highlighted plant
responses to varying nutrient stress conditions. Researchers at different fields across the state tested plant reaction to stress conditions at different times of the growing season and production yields at harvest. Researchers said they hope to determine new metrics on inputs and farming methods to respond to stress signs on their cotton crops.
Jason Mallard, ANR extension agent for Screven County, explained that crop yield is a primary target for testing new plant varieties. He said that an increase of 10 pounds per acre per county could result in an additional $250,000 in sales from each county based on current market prices.
Researchers grow cotton varieties on 20 farms across Georgia to fully view results from differences in soil conditions and other factors. Cotton has grown at the Midville location since 2009, and the field day provides producers a chance to see how the plants perform not just in Southeast Georgia but to

compare them with the other locations. Black noted that this year's attendance
was very good, considering no field day was held in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He said the interest from producers was indicative of the importance of the research performed at the Midville center, which reopened in 2008 after a four-year hiatus caused by budget constraints.
"Since we reopened, there's been a culture around the station in drawing support in keeping it open," Black said.
A video of this year's Midville Field Day will be available soon at the Southeast Research and Education Center's website at https://segeorgia.caes.uga.edu/.

science professor, discusses the peanut variety

Green Industry: Demand is expected to level off to pre-pandemic levels

plant material to fill the need. "During the pandemic onset, GGIA
members worked diligently to ensure that our entire industry was included in the essential workforce," Riner said. "Once elected officials realized how crucial our entire industry was to the health of their communities, it was an easy decision, and our industry professionals worked throughout the pandemic."

An additional market that was important to evaluate was housing starts. When houses are increasingly being built, the demand for turf and other landscape products also increases. Campbell said the tremendous effect that pushed up demand mixed with the coronavirus created a shock to the green market.
"No one could've planned for this market," Campbell said. "That's not just with the green industry, but with every industry."

Riner said that the industry has faced challenges of a viable workforce.
"Growers and landscape contractors alike have struggled to maintain adequate personnel throughout the pandemic," Riner said. "While many workers came from the foodservice industry, demand for workers has continued to outpace employment application rates."
Campbell predicts that the market will re-

turn to pre-COVID practices. Some people will stick with online or curbside buying, but others are expected to return to the aisles of greenhouses while others will discontinue their at-home green projects.

ment. Danforth is a product of that.
While some know before they graduate college that the department is where they want to land, many find it in different ways. In the words of Avery Chappell, the department was "never on my radar."
"I met Commissioner Black while I was an intern for the Georgia General Assembly during the 2020 session," the chief policy analysist said. "Working for the commissioner since I graduated has been a learning experience." Chappell has loved the people he has met

and the places he has been able to go. He has been to "all corners of the state" with Commissioner Black. To him, it has been fun to see what the state has to offer in a job he found through making connections.
Working in the agriculture industry covers myriad areas. Some, the public may not even realize. Amir Sports and Erin White work within the communication division and have a duty of sharing the message of agriculture through various mediums.
White is the director of creative projects for the department of agriculture. As a graduate of the University of Georgia with an agricultural communication degree, her tools lie in graphic design and marketing.
"I love serving the agricultural community," the 26-year-old said. "I grew up surrounded by row crops and cattle, going to livestock judging practice and 4-H rallies, and any small thing I can do to give back always
makes me smile." White said she has been into art as
long as she can remember, and her job is the perfect marriage of her heritage and passion.
Sports serves as a social media specialist for the GDA. His love of agriculture was cultivated on his family's farm in Pavo.
"I knew from a young age I wanted to be in agriculture somehow," the Conyers native said. "I want to learn new skills that will help the department perform at its best. There is always more to learn."
Jobs at the department are more than jobs, they are acts of service. The young people who are employed in these jobs take their roles seriously and serve with passion. Agriculture comes into our lives in different ways, and for LeAnna Miller it was something she sought out after graduation.
"I spent time working for my dad's company, but really wanted to get back into the agriculture industry and found the GDA," the UGA graduate said. "Through my career with the structural pest division, I have been able to attend state and national trainings in the pest control industry. My goal is to continue to support the consumers of Georgia and the pest control industry as an inspector." Miller said she wants to treat others the way she would want to be treated through her job. In this case she supports consumers of Georgia by providing answers to their questions. E.M. Tiffany wrote in the beginning of each paragraph of the FFA creed, "I believe in the future of agriculture." The future of Georgia agriculture is working at the GDA and across the state. Young people are promoting Georgia's No. 1 industry and growing to be the next generation of Georgia leaders.
