September is National Preparedness Month
Assess your risks, make plans before disaster strikes

10 0 t1h9A17nniv2e0r1s7ary By Amy Carter amy.carter@agr.georgia.gov
Put yourself in the shoes of more than one million residents of the U.S. Gulf Coast who face weeks of recovery from Hurricane Ida without

electrical power in summer temperatures of 90

degrees or hotter. Think about what you would

need to get yourself and your family, your em-

ployees, your home, and your farm through such

an event.

Federal and state emergency management of-

ficials have designated the month of September

as National Preparedness Month, a time to pon-

der and prepare for such possibilities. This year's

theme is "Prepare to Protect. Preparing for disas-

ters is protecting everyone you love."

be prepared for any eventuality. Wildfires in the western United States, flash floods in middle Tennessee, and a 7.2-magnitude earthquake in Haiti have killed and injured thousands and destroyed as many homes and businesses in recent weeks, all amid the global COVID pandemic.
The key to being prepared for whatever might come is contingency planning, said Gary Kelley, inspector general for the Georgia Department of Agriculture.
"The goal of this is it will be a month where people will think about the possible risks or hazards that they may face where they live and think

Pecan-enriched diet shown to reduce cholesterol
Study finds improvements in LDL numbers among those at risk for cardiovascular disease
By Cal Powell University of Georgia

While the proper pronunciation of pecan remains a subject of debate, University of Georgia researchers have shown the tree nut can dramatically improve a person's cholesterol levels.
Participants at risk for cardiovascular disease who ate pecans during an eight-week intervention showed significant improvements in total cholesterol, triglycerides, and low-density lipoprotein, or "bad" cholesterol, in a study conducted by researchers in the UGA College of Family and Consumer Sciences.
"This dietary intervention, when put in the context of different intervention studies, was extremely successful," said Jamie Cooper, a professor in the department of nutritional sciences and one of the study's authors. "We had some people who actually went from having high cholesterol at the start of the study to no longer being in that category after the intervention."
Researchers saw an average drop of 5 percent in total cholesterol and between 6 percent and 9 percent in LDL among participants who consumed pecans.
For context, researchers referred to a previous meta-analysis of 51 exercise interventions designed to lower cholesterol that reported an average reduction of 1 percent in total cholesterol and 5 percent in LDL cholesterol.
"The addition of pecans to the diet not only produced a greater and more consistent reduction in total cholesterol and LDL compared to many other lifestyle interventions but may also be a more sustainable approach for long-term health," Cooper said. "Some research shows that even a 1 percent reduction in LDL is associated with a small reduction of coronary artery disease risk, so these re-

ductions are definitely clinically meaningful." Researchers assigned 52 adults between
the ages of 30 and 75 who were at higher risk for cardiovascular disease to one of three groups.
One group consumed 68 grams or about 470 calories of pecans a day as part of their regular diet; a second group substituted pecans for a similar number of calories from their habitual diet, and a control group did not consume pecans.
At eight weeks, participants consumed a high-fat meal to determine changes in blood lipids and the amount of glucose, or sugar, in the blood.
Fasted blood lipids showed similar improvements among the two pecan groups while post-meal triglycerides were reduced in the group that added pecans. Post-meal glucose was lowered in the group that substituted pecans.
"Whether people added them or substituted other foods in the diet for them, we still saw improvements and pretty similar responses in total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in par-

ticular," said Cooper, who also serves as director of the UGA Obesity Initiative.
Researchers pointed to the known bioactive properties of pecans for possible mechanisms driving the improvements.
Pecans are high in healthy fatty acids and fiber, both of which have been linked to lower cholesterol.
The paper, Pecan-enriched diets alter cholesterol profiles and triglycerides in adults at-risk for cardiovascular disease in a randomized, controlled trial, appeared in The Journal of Nutrition and can be viewed online here: https://academic. oup.com/jn/advance-article/doi/10.1093/jn/ nxab248/6349277

Good To Grow: Fall gardens are less work, more joy

By Jay Jones
jay.jones@agr.georgia.gov
In the heat of August, Karen Hughes is thinking about the fall. She is looking forward to cooler weather, but she's also planning for a fall garden.
"The reason I like to garden fall, winter, and spring is that there are not the pests to deal with and not as much demand for watering," she said. "It's just more enjoyable. You might not even need to go check on it but once a week, and we just like the abundance of things that you get during those months."
The next planting for backyard gardeners offers a chance to spread the growing season deep into October and further. A fall garden is also a chance to shift gears with a different harvest variety. Greens and herbs and tubers prefer cooler temperatures.
For Hughes, gardening is a hobby that lets her wind down from work and is an activity for her and her husband. They keep a plot at the Newtown Park Community Garden in Johns Creek north of Atlanta. Since space at the shared garden is tight, Hughes plants simple and grows collards, cabbage, and mixed lettuce because they can harvest it over time.
"That stuff just goes and goes, and it's just wonderful," she said.
She also plants garlic and pretty much leaves it alone until it starts producing in the spring. They get plenty to share

with friends and make garlic braids to hang in the kitchen. Annie Barbas, a master gardener in Valdosta, helps stu-
dents with their elementary and middle school gardens in Lowndes County. She looks for something that will give good results before winter break. She said radishes are a simple crop for the fall because they mature fast.
Once the radishes are done, Barbas follows with a second crop, such as turnips. She grows vegetables that handle winter well, like carrots and turnips, because children will see them grow when they return from winter break.
Preparing a garden for the fall means clearing out spent vegetable plants and recharging the soil. Barbas said a soil analysis in the fall is good to see what you need because summer heat and crops take a lot out of the ground.
"I would tell people that soil amendment is the most important thing, and it's not just fertilizer. You have to have some organic material in there," she said.
She recommended amendments with mycorrhizae which can be found at local home and garden stores. Mycorrhizae fungi have a symbiotic association with a plant. The fungi allow plants to draw more nutrients and water from the soil while the plant provides nutrients to the fungi. Mushroom compost and worm castings also are good amendments for a fall garden.
Timing to plant depends on how late the first frost comes. When planting from seed, Barbas recommends checking the planting chart on the back of the seed packets to make sure

they are in the ground early enough to germinate. She said it was a lesson learned when she couldn't get lettuce to grow one year at the school gardens.
"I was just thinking at first it was bad seed from being held over because you couldn't find any seed last year, but we figured out that the temperature wasn't right for the seeds to come up," Barbas said. "We discovered that 70 degrees was a magic number, and we needed to get down to that for the lettuce to germinate."
By nature of the fall bringing fewer daylight hours, most fall garden vegetables don't require much sunlight to grow. The fastest-growing plants like radishes will need more sun, while carrots, potatoes, and leafy greens do well with threeto-four hours of sun per day.
Fall also brings pollinators back. Barbas said they have pollinator plants at all school gardens serving double duty in teaching children about pollination and keeping the gardens healthy.

National Preparedness: Farmers and ranchers must plan for safety of livestock, equipment, buildings

about what preparations they may need to make in regards to those risks or hazards," Kelley said.
Certain preparations are universal: Knowledge of possible threats to your area
and the warning systems that might signal such an event is on the horizon. A communication plan for your family that outlines how you will contact each other and where you will meet if separated. A first-aid kit stocked for wound treatment, pain relief and other medical necessities. A disaster kit packed with non-perishable food for people and pets, a can opener, enough water for people and pets, flashlights, batteries, a battery-powered or hand-cranked radio, mobile phones and chargers, prescription medications and other daily needs. A watertight container with important documents like insurance policies, birth certificates, Social Security cards and passports stored in a secure place for quick access. But farmers must engage in an added layer of thought and planning to ensure that crops and livestock, equipment and outbuildings are protected and monetary losses are minimized. "Look at your farm to identify potential hazards and risks and address those. For instance, if there's a hurricane coming and you haven't secured debris or items that are likely to fly around, then you could experience more damage than you would have ordinarily," Kelley said. "It would be a wise practice for farmers to go around their farms looking at hazards and fixing things that need repair prior to the storm getting there." Planning for fuel needs is key as well. "Contingency planning is a big part of preparedness," Kelley said. "The farmer may get his feed from one source but what if something

happens at the source. Does he have a fall back or a secondary plan he can go to?"
The same goes for fuel, not only to power equipment like chain saws and tractors needed for clean-up but also generators to keep perishable commodities and livestock safe in the event of electrical failure.
Steve Brinson, deputy director of emergency management for the GDA, said generators take on added importance in rural communities.
"We're on well water at my farm, so if the power goes out, what's my plan from that point? Do you have a generator big enough to handle the well? I do have the ability to switch to city water, but a lot of farms don't," Brinson said.
After Hurricane Michael struck in October 2018, Brinson said the department heard from several dairies that did not have generators sufficient to keep the milk cool in their coolers. Livestock owners should make sure animals are identified with ear tags or markers to prevent loss when fences are destroyed. A disposal plan is also necessary for animals that perish in the event.
Having a plan won't stop disaster from happening, but it can make it easier to cope in the moment and make recovery easier once the emergency has passed.
The Center for Food Security &
Public Health at Iowa State Univer-
sity has compiled a comprehensive
guide titled All-Hazards Prepared-
ness for Rural Communities that
offers planning advice specific to
agriculture. Find it online at http://

Georgie's Drive
Thru Monticello
Hello! I'm Georgie, the Georgia Grown mascot. I travel the state of Georgia promoting our No. 1 industry, agriculture! Last week, I drove through Monticello on my way to a meeting at Rock Eagle.

When I pulled up to the red light on Highway 83, a freshly painted mural caught my eye. It was almost as eye-catching as that Bear Lax sign on Highway 11. Monticello's mural pays tribute to their nickname "Deer Capital of Georgia" and to country singer Trisha Yearwood, their most famous hometown star. The city was built at the crossroads of two major trade routes that date back hundreds of years. Mostly traveled on foot, one of these routes even led all the way to New Orleans. Eventually foot travel gave way to train travel. It was on one such train that a salesman traveling through Georgia died before the stop in Monticello. Confident the family of the deceased salesman was rich, the undertaker buried the man in the town's cemetery and built a nice fence around the plot. He left off the headstone until the family sent money for it, which never came. The fenced plot still sits in the cemetery unmarked, now known as the Grave of the Unknown Salesman.

A new mural celebrates the history of Monticello. (Lee Lancaster/GDA)

Diversifying the flock
Heritage poultry breeds bring color, variety to the hen house

By Jay Jones jay.jones@agr.georgia.gov

Heritage chicken breeds are classics that never seem to go out of style, and for newcomers, they can be a good choice for starting a flock.
Chickens have been raised in the United States since colonists landed in Jamestown in the 17th century, and breeds have developed over the years to have desired traits like being "good eggers" or docile with people. Today, chicken farmers can turn to heritage breeds to introduce desired traits to their flocks.
Hollie Rhatigan of Rhatigan Farms in Blairsville realized the importance of preserving heritage breeds when she showed some of her heritage Rhode Island Reds to people who insisted that the chickens were not reds.
"I'm like, well, this is what they're supposed to look like, but you know, they've just been so over commercially bred back to different layers that you wouldn't even recognize a heritage Rhode Island Red unless somebody told you that's what it was," she said.
Rhatigan's heritage breeds include Orpingtons, Silkies, Wyandottes, and Black Marans. She also has olive eggers, chickens bred to lay olive-colored eggs, and specialty breeds.
Rhatigan Farms sells chickens for breeding and eggs. Hollie Rhatigan said they want to start showing their chickens for judged events when their children are older.
For those thinking about getting chickens to raise, Rhatigan recommended a heritage breed because they can be healthier than regular stock found at retail stores. The different breeds have good traits developed from hundreds of years of breeding, like being good egg producers or being gentle around people.
Also, if the hobby grows into a business, a grower can better match up a heritage breed with another to generate desired traits.
Kit Stevens raises Ameraucanas, Black Copper Marans and Swedish Flower hens at her farm in Cobb County. Her approach to raising chickens was to jump right in, almost on a whim.
"I had to be like the dumbest person ever that went to go get chickens," she said. "I looked them up on Craig's List, I showed up at some guy's house with a pet carrier and came home."

Jubilee Orpington hens feed in their pen at Rhatigan Farms in Blairsville. The breed originated in Great Britain in the late 1800s. They were raised for eggs and meat. Orpingtons are sturdy and good-natured, which makes them a good choice for a backyard coop. (Special Photo)

Stevens and her family learned about chickens through trial and error and now have several heritage breeds on their 15-acre farm in Cobb County. She also specializes in selling eggs of various colors blue, pink, brown, green, and olive.
"I think when people first get into chickens, like me, they just go get a chicken, and then you learn about them a little bit more, and the next thing you know, you want that rare breed of chicken," she said. "I went from where I didn't know what it was to now, I have some Deathlayers that until a few years ago, there was only a flock of a few thousand of them in the world."
Stevens said they raise what they like chickens that look good and lay colored eggs they sell from the farm.
Chickens known as Easter eggers are so named because they lay eggs of different hues. Stevens said they are popular with customers looking for blue, pink, or green eggs or a mix.
Stevens said she has come across a common misconception where people sell Easter eggers as the Ameraucana breed.
Ameraucanas carry a gene to lay blue eggs, but Stevens explained Easter eggers are hybrid chickens that lay different colored eggs and had been bred with an Americana to pick up the blue egg gene.
"A lot of times, hatcheries, which I don't know why they do it, will call it an Ameraucana, but it's not. It's an Easter egger," she said. "It makes it hard for people who are trying to find an Ameraucana, which carries only the blue egg gene, so you have to read the fine print."
Another characteristic of colored eggs Stevens learned is that the entire shell of blue eggs is blue through the membrane inside while brown eggs are brown on the outside and white on the inside.
"So, a brown egg is a white egg with brown paint on top. Both traits are dominant, so if you bred a brown egg laying chicken with a blue egg laying chicken what you are going to get is a blue egg with brown paint on top, and that is when you get into your olives and your greens," Stevens said.
She encouraged anyone looking to raise chickens to start small, even if it's a mixed flock with a rooster.
"I started, and I said I'm going to figure it out, and then you're just constantly learning," Stevens said. "There is just always something new, and they're doing something interesting."

A candling certificate is required to sell eggs in Georgia. To learn more about receiving an egg candling certificate, visit the Georgia Department of Agriculture's website at http://agr.georgia.gov/egg-candling-certification.aspx, or call 404.656.3680.

Black Copper Marans lay dark brown to chocolate eggs and are good producers, laying 2-3 eggs a day. The breed originates from Marans, France, and is winter hardy. (Special Photo)

Rule-change leads to uptick in value of U.S. agricultural exports

A new definition of "agricultural products" combined with higher prices for cotton and soybeans led the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Economic Research Service to forecast a $4 billion increase in U.S. agricultural exports in fiscal year 2022.
The USDA's quarterly trade forecast released in August projected U.S. agricultural exports in fiscal year (FY) 2022 at $177.5 billion, due in part to the USDA's adoption of the World Trade Organization's definition of "agricultural products" to include ethanol, distilled spirits, and manufactured tobacco products, among others, while removing rubber and allied products.
The net effect is that U.S. agricultural exports under the new definition averaged $4.7 billion higher per year during FY 20182020 from the previous definition, and U.S. agricultural imports averaged $9.9 billion higher annually during the same period, the forecast paper said.

Soybean exports are projected to increase by $3.3 billion from FY 2021 to a record $32.3 billion on higher prices, which more than offset lower projected volumes. Cotton exports are forecast up $500 million to $6.8 billion on higher unit values.
Agricultural exports to China are forecast at $39.0 billion an increase of $2.0 billion from FY 2021 largely due to higher expected soybean prices and strong cotton and sorghum demand. Agricultural exports to Canada and Mexico are forecast at $23.8 billion and $22.3 billion, respectively.
U.S. agricultural imports in FY 2022 are forecast at $159.5 billion, $2.0 billion higher than the revised FY 2021 due to higher imports of livestock and beef products, oilseeds and products, and horticulture products.
FY 2021 imports are forecast at $157.5 billion, up $15.7 billion from the previous forecast, primarily resulting from

the inclusion of distilled spirits and other products in the new "agricultural products" definition. Record-level import values in the third quarter of FY 2021 largely due to pentup demand from the pandemic shutdowns of entertainment and service industries, which was released driving up purchases and prices of wine, beer, fruits and vegetables, and other horticultural products, at least in the short term.
State Fiscal Economist Dr. Jeffrey Dorfman, professor in the Agricultural and Applied Economics department of the University of Georgia's College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, said while the prediction is for no net increase in exports, the news is positive for farmers.
"The volume of agricultural exports will be roughly constant, but with commodity prices remaining strong, farmers benefit a little from continued pricing power," Dorfman said.
