BLACK, COMMISSIONER WEDNESDAY, JULY 27, 2022 VOL. 105, NO. 15 COPYRIGHT 2022 Gear up for the 2022 hurricane season USDA helps producers prepare for and recover from natural disasters From the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Farm Services Administration Hurricane season is officially underway and lasts until Nov. 30. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts that the 2022 hurricane season will be above normal in the Atlantic and produce 14 to 21 named storms with six to 10 hurricanes and three to six major hurricanes. Take precautions to prepare and protect your family and agricultural operation: Develop an Emergency Plan Ensure your household and employees know your hurricane plan, including meeting points, emergency contact lists, and alternate Trade mission cancelled The Wood Species Inbound Mission to Georgia, Maryland and Louisiana scheduled for Aug. 15-20 was canceled by the Southern United States Trade Association due to limited response from domestic producers. Organizers were planning the mission to bring buyers from India, Vietnam and China to the three states to discuss possible trade opportunities with wood producers. The Georgia Department of Agriculture coordinated the mission in Georgia. Organizers are planning to schedule other trade missions in the future. For more information, contact Sarah Cook at sarah.cook@agr.georgia.gov or call 229.454.0612.

Remove Debris and Secure Large Objects Clean out culverts, ditches, and other drainage areas, especially before and during peak hurricane season to reduce water damage. Most injuries to animals, people, or structures during a hurricane are caused by flying objects. To lessen the risk, minimize the presence of equipment, supplies, and debris that may become air- borne during high winds or encountered in floodwaters. Secure Important Records and Documents Pre- and post-hurricane documentation is extremely important for insurance com- pensation and recovery assistance.

Nationwide 988 suicide and crisis lifeline is active New number will also serve veterans On July 16, the United States transitioned the 10-digit National Suicide Prevention Lifeline to 988 an easy-to-remember three-digit number for 24/7 crisis care. The lifeline, which also links to the Veterans Crisis Line, follows a three-year joint effort by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Federal Communications Commission, and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to put crisis care more in reach for people in need. The National Suicide Hotline Designation Act, signed into law after the passage of bipartisan legislation in 2020, authorized 988 as a new three-digit number for suicide and mental health crisis. All telephone service and text providers in the U.S. and the five major U.S. territories were required by the FCC to activate 988 no later than July 16. Federal investments in the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline increased 18-fold - from $24 million to $432 million to scale up crisis centers and back-up center capacity, and to provide special services, including a sub-network for Spanish language speakers. The $432 million included $105 million in grant funding to states and territories, provided by the American Rescue Plan, to improve response rates, increase capacity to meet future demand, and ensure calls initiated in their states or territories are first routed to local, regional, or state crisis call centers. The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is a network of more than 200 state and local call centers supported by HHS through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.

Research shows that 50 percent of all occupational illnesses involve skin disease and result in one quarter of all workdays lost. Armed with the basic skincare tips, you can easily prevent irritation, infections, or even skin cancer. Here are some basics of skincare and how to treat some of the most common skin conditions experienced in the workplace. Skincare Basics Sunscreen & sun protection Use sunscreen containing at least SPF 30 daily. Remember to re-apply every two hours if working outside (even on cloudy days). For added protection, consider also wearing sun protective clothing including hats that cover the ears or neck, long sleeves, and long pants. Maintain a healthy skin barrier If exposed to chemicals, hand sanitizer, or soaps through- out the day, remember to protect your hands by wearing gloves or moisturizing as much as possible. Hand hygiene is key No matter your work, remember the importance of reg- ular hand washing. This principle is especially important when working with soil, foliage, animals, and food products. Many common infections are spread by our own hands. Know when it's time to see a doctor If you notice any increase in redness, swelling, or drain- age or have a wound that will not heal, you may need additional evaluation, testing, or prescription medication. Common Occupational Skin Conditions Skin Rash A skin rash caused by contact dermatitis is a sensitivity reaction to any irritant that encounters your skin (most commonly nickel, poison oak/ivy, latex, cleaning products). This contact causes the area to look red and feel itchy, warm, irritated, dry, or even blistered. Treatment: Avoid contact or protect the skin from the suspected irritant. Over-the-counter creams and medications approved by your doctor can help soothe itching. Sunburn An inflammatory reaction to excess exposure to the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays, sunburn results in the skin appearing red or deep purple in darker skin tones, painful, warm, and itchy. Treatment: Use a moisturizer containing aloe vera, soy, or hydrocortisone. Over-the-counter pain relievers approved by your doctor can help reduce discomfort. Be sure to stay hydrated and take extra care to protect your damaged skin when outside. Calluses Calluses are the body's way of protecting the delicate skin underneath. These thickened and hardened areas of your skin that form after excess pressure or friction are sometimes called "corns." Calluses can vary from feeling hard and dry to soft and malleable. Treatment: Soak in warm water then gently file the callus with a pumice stone. Remember to apply a moisturizer daily and wear a callus or corn pad to protect the area from friction that can worsen the callus. Prevent more calluses by wearing shoes or gloves that fit properly. Minor Cuts Minor cuts generally damage just the top two layers of skin causing minor bleeding and pain. Treatment: First, wash your hands and the affected area with soap and water to reduce the chance of infection. Next, control bleeding by applying pressure with a clean cloth or bandage for 1-2 minutes. Once bleeding is controlled, apply a barrier ointment like petroleum jelly to protect the area from bacteria and dirt, then cover with a clean bandage. Important facts about caring for cuts: Do NOT apply an antibiotic cream unless approved by your healthcare provider. Many variations have been found to irritate the skin. If your cut was due to a metal, rusty, or dirty object, ensure your tetanus vaccination is up to date. Minor cuts should heal in one week or less. If your cut is longer than three-fourths of an inch (approximately the tip of your finger), more than a quarter inch deep, continuously bleeds, or shows signs of pus, increased redness, swelling or pain - seek care from your doctor. Bug Bites Bug bites happen when an insect causes a break in the skin's surface with its mouth or stinger. Treatment: Take approved over-the-counter pain or an- ti-inflammatory medications to manage discomfort. For itching and swelling, apply an ice pack and over-the-counter anti-itch cream (hydrocortisone). Oral antihistamine medications may also provide some relief but often cause drowsiness. See a doctor if you experience a rash, fever, or body aches or your bite begins to show signs of infection. Special Consideration -- Tick Bites Remove the tick: Use alcohol to sterilize tweezers then grasp the tick as close to the skin surface as possible. Apply gentle, steady pressure to pull the tick up and away from the surface. Do not twist, squeeze, or crush the tick. If you believe that there may be parts of the tick still in your skin, or you see signs of infection, visit your doctor. Take care of your skin in the workplace by following these tips for prevention and treatment of minor skin conditions.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 27, 2022 FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN 404-656-3722 agr.georgia.gov PAGE 9 Larry For The Country: Remembering the Summer of '63 Editor's Note: Larry Walker is taking a break from writing for the Market Bulletin in order to work on a novel. He will be missed. By Larry Walker lwalker@whgmlaw.com It's June 11 in the year of our Lord, 2022. Here my wife, Janice, and I sit on what temporarily is "our part," as set aside, and outside of our temporary room 303 on American Cruise Line Ship "Splendor." We traveled the mighty Mississippi River, and I am awed by its power and splendor. I first saw the Mississippi River almost exactly 59 years ago, on June 17, 1963, as I and my friends Jerry Wilson, Jerry Horton ("Do-Tricks"), Bobby Jones and I made our way to work a summer at the Texas Steel Company in Fort Worth, Texas. Despite the horrendous racial unrest in the south Gov. George Wallace stood in the "schoolhouse door" on June 11, 1963, as we ate lunch at a drug store in Selma, Alabama, and that night as we slept in a motel in Meridian, Mississippi, Byron De La Beckwith shot and killed Medgar Evers). The South was "on fire," and the next morning as we rode through Jackson there were no interstates in 1963 in my little green and white Corvair, we were much frightened by the demonstrators clogging the Jackson streets. When we arrived in Fort Worth, we were met by two Texas Rangers, who pulled us over inquiring, "What are you boys doing out here?" Surely, they thought we were freedom riders. When we responded, "We've come to work in the steel mill," their inquires softened and they gave us their personal cards with the admonition, "Take these, you might need them before the summer is over." Fortunately, we did not have to call on them, but there was great comfort knowing we could. Jerry Wilsons's brother Will was at that time vice president of Texas Steel. He helped us to get a small garage apartment near Texas Christian University, which was very close to where Lee Harvey Oswald lived. Whether we ever saw him, I do not know, but I have often wondered if any of us did. Oswald shot and killed President John F. Kennedy in November of 1963. The work at Texas Steel was hot, hard, loud, constant, and scary. The initial reception for four non-union college boys by hardened union steel workers was less than cordial. At times, I thought we would not be able to cut it, but we did! And it did not take but a few days until we were accepted and liked. These workers could see that we knew how to work, and that we were with them. When we left, tears were shed, and there was much sadness by our friends at Texas Steel. We were sad also. One thing I did in Texas in the summer of '63 was to read All the Kings Men by Robert Penn Warren. And about two years ago, I read it again. Of course, we did some other things that by today's standards are rather mild, but I'm still not ready to confess them. When we left for Fort Worth we were boys. When we returned home, we were men. My brothers Jerry, Do-Tricks, and Bobby have all gone to a better place where I want to join them one day. Until then, I and I alone have our memories of the summer of 1963. -Portions of this article were taken by me from my book, "Tales from Georgia's Gnat Line," and used with permission of the publisher, Mercer University Press. 988: Calls are expected to exceed six million, doubling previous years Continued From Page 1 FCC staff first proposed 988 in a report to Congress in August 2019 as the nationwide, easy-to-remember, 3-digit dialing code for individuals in crisis to connect to suicide prevention and mental health crisis counselors with the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. On July 16, 2020, the FCC adopted rules designating 988 for this purpose. Recognizing the need to better support at-risk communities in crisis, including youth and individuals with disabilities, the FCC adopted additional rules in November 2021 to expand access to this important service by establishing the ability to also text 988. The VA administers the Veterans Crisis Line through the Lifeline's national network. Because of VA's partnership with the Lifeline, the Veterans Crisis Line is affected by this tran- sition to a new number. Veterans and their loved ones can now Dial 988 then Press 1 to reach the Veterans Crisis Line. In 2021, the Lifeline received 3.6 million calls, chats, and texts. That number is expected to at least double within the first full year after the 988 transition. The U.S. had one death by suicide every 11 minutes in 2020, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Suicide was the second leading cause of death for young people aged 10-14 and 25-34. From April 2020 to 2021, more than 100,000 people died from drug overdoses. Studies have shown that after speaking with a trained crisis counselor, most Lifeline callers are significantly more likely to feel less depressed, less suicidal, less overwhelmed, and more hopeful. The 10-digit Lifeline number 1-800-273-TALK (8255) will continue to be operational after July 16 and will route calls to 988 indefinitely. Veterans, service members, and their families can also still reach the Veterans Crisis Line with the current phone number 1-800-273-8255 and Press 1, or by chat or text to 838255 The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration is the agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that leads public health efforts to advance the behavioral health of the nation. SAMHSA's mission is to reduce the impact of substance abuse and mental illness on America's communities.

Silicon Ranch looks to raise sheep and grow Georgia native plants to support pollinators among the solar panels. Nashville-based Silicon Ranch and its partner Green Power EMC dedicated the solar farm on May 11 with local and state officials as one of Georgia's most visible solar energy projects. The site is expected to produce 68 megawatts of electricity for 30 electrical membership corporations across the state. The site, known as the Houston Solar project, is one of 34 that Silicon Ranch operates in Georgia through Green Power EMC. It will power 11,000 households annually, according to a statement announcing the site's dedication. Green Power EMC was created in 2001 by 38 Georgia EMCs as a separate company to focus on renewable energy sources. Silicon Ranch builds and maintains the solar farms for Green Power, according to Matt Beasley, chief commercial officer of Silicon Ranch. Michael Baute, director of regenerative energy and land management, said this is the company's third year of running sheep on solar farms in Georgia. The company has contracted sheep flocks with ranchers. The Houston Solar project is different in that it will be the first year Silicon Ranch will own the sheep flocks and hire staff to raise the animals. The company will also dedicate a part of the solar farm to growing pollinating plants such as milkweed and Coneflower, among others, to support pollinating insects and birds. The multiple uses of land is a concept known as agrivoltaics, defined as agricultural components and solar panels incorporated together to benefit each other. Silicon Ranch has studied the land to plant grasses at other sites to control soil erosion. Sheep will help maintain foliage around the panels. Baute explained the company hopes to save money on mowing on the site and do so in an environmentally friendly manner. Planting flowers and plants that support pollinators at solar farms is not new. Baute explained pollinating plants are part of many other solar farms across the United States. He said Silicon Ranch would dedicate areas of the Houston Solar project to a mixture of native grasses, flowers and milkweed that will attract pollinators but specifically help Monarch butterflies. Monarchs migrate from Mexico to New England every year and are significant pollinators of crops, along with bees, birds, beetles, wasps, and other animals. A 700-acre solar farm along Interstate 75 in Houston County is a highly visible mix of energy and agriculture. (Provided Photo) Sheep production in Georgia is modest compared to other states. Most sheep production for meat and fiber is done in the western United States, with Texas, California and Colorado leading the way. There are 2,802 sheep and goat operations in Georgia that generate $5.67 million in annual sales. The U.S. total is 125,523 operations generating $1.02 billion annually, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's 2017 Agriculture Census. Baute said his company sees an opportunity to grow the commodity in Georgia. Along with purchasing their animals and hiring staff to care for them, Silicon Ranch is also building a sheep genetics program at the Houston Solar project. "That will be the headquarters for our genetics program throughout the whole state where we will look to improve our sheep genetics through the National Sheep Improvement Program," Baute said. "We'll use that location to distribute our genetics to our larger commercial sheep ranches in the state." The biggest challenge facing Silicon Ranch sheep production effort is the state's lack of meat processing facilities. Baute described it as a bottleneck affecting all sheep and goat producers. Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Gary Black is working with them to find solutions to the problem. "That's something Commissioner Black is interested in working with us on, and in fact, he suggested we start looking at that now," Baute said. "I'm not sure what our role is in that aspect, but as the sheep industry grows in Georgia, we'll see the need for (meat processing facilities) more and more." In his comments from the Houston Solar project's dedication ceremony, Black praised Silicon Ranch's efforts to include agriculture in their solar energy development. "This innovative renewable energy project keeps land productive, creates new good-paying jobs for our rural workforce, and puts Georgia agriculture in the spotlight of innovation on the national stage," Black said. Baute said planting for the pollinator habitat will begin this fall, with sheep grazing beginning toward the end of this year or early 2023.

Lameiras University of Georgia While there is a lot of concern about impending recession in the U.S., the traditional economic indicators of recession aren't fully apparent, especially in the agricultural sector, according to Georgia State Fiscal Economist Jeffrey Dorfman, a professor of agricultural and applied economics in the University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. "The interesting question is, if I run a business in agriculture, do I care about a recession? During a recession, we don't cut back on food. Theoretically, we may cut back on restaurants, so if I were a grower who grew fancy vegetables for expensive restaurants or who raised specialized beef, I might be worried about a recession," Dorfman said. "But, if I am growing peanuts, soybeans, blueberries, chickens or whatever else, I don't think it matters." Yangxuan Liu, assistant professor of agricultural and applied economics at CAES, said that the agriculture industry with the exception of the cotton industry has traditionally acted as a buffer to the economy during recessionary periods. Cotton plunges "The majority of study about how agriculture responds to recession shows that the part of agriculture that contributes to the economy does not drop as much as the rest of the economy during recession, staying relatively stable. For Georgia agriculture, poultry, eggs and major row crops such as wheat and peanuts could navigate through this recession and provide some support for the state economy," said Liu, who specializes in cotton economics. "Cotton and cotton-related products are discretionary items. Thus, cotton prices tend to follow the economy, with rising cotton prices during economic growth and declining cotton prices during recessions," Liu wrote in a recent article for the Georgia Cotton Commission, explaining that soaring inflation has put extra pressure on consumers and impacted the cotton market. The annual inflation rate in the U.S. accelerated to 9.1 percent in June 2022, the highest since November 1981. Embedded in inflation, energy prices rose 41.6 percent and food costs surged 10.4 percent. Extraordinary conditions While a recession typically happens because the economy "got too excited somewhere," the current factors disrupting the economy are not the same as those normally seen in a pre-recessionary period, Dorfman said. "Whatever happens recession-wise, we need to understand that this is not a normal time. We have had an economy that was, in some sense, artificially good because the federal government gave out so much money in COVID relief and the economy artificially skewed toward stuff," Dorfman explained. "Normally, people spend about 70 percent of their money on services travel, entertainment, etc. but during the pandemic we reduced the amount we spent on services, and we started spending all this extra money on stuff that we bought online." Now that spending patterns have primarily reverted toward services, businesses producing consumer goods are "feeling the pinch." "There may be bumps and economic growth may slow down, but if there is a recession, it will not be a normal one. The economy is not going to lose a lot of jobs," Dorfman said. Job security Both during and after the COVID pandemic, the employment market has remained strong for job seekers. "Normally one of the major characteristics of a recession is rising unemployment and the inability to get jobs," Dorman said. "I am struggling to believe that a lot of businesses want to fire a lot of workers. They've just spent two years trying to desperately hire new workers and they are busy making projects to keep those workers busy for a while. If you used to work on an assembly line, they will keep paying you, but you'll do other things for a while because if the company fires people, they may never be able to hire replacements." For industries struggling to find enough workers to fill jobs, such as the retail and hospitality industries, Dorfman said they will have to get creative to find ways to make those jobs attractive. "In agriculture, we are very familiar with this problem. For years it has been impossible to find anyone willing to do the jobs we need done. We need the guest worker program to bring in people willing to do these jobs. I could see the same thing happening in hospitality and retail eventually or they will have to find some way to reimagine those jobs," he said. While higher wages are a major factor, companies also can make jobs attractive to applicants with additional benefits beyond pay and health insurance, Dorfman said. "Starbucks is an interesting example. They are halfway between retail and hospitality, and for several years they have offered tuition assistance because they know they can get workers that way. Other hospitality and retail employers can find similar ways to attract workers," he said. Capitalism and war While economic indicators early in 2022 pointed toward economic recovery, Dorfman said there are many factors that have led to current fears of recession. "The thing about capitalism and free enterprise is that there is no central coordination mechanism. For example, if Athens needs a new hotel, there is nothing stopping three different people from building a hotel. Now we have three hotels when we only needed one," he explained. "If you have too much investment in anything home building, auto manufacturing, growing cotton the people in that industry start to lose money, and some go out of business. If that happens on a large enough scale, you have a recession." Similarly, because the world needs more wheat due to the global supply chain disruptions caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, there is nothing in place to control how much wheat producers in other countries plant in response. "What will happen six months from now when people finish harvesting corn and soybeans? Will they do a winter wheat crop? I assume that in places that traditionally grow wheat and had time to react, such as in the Northwest, that they planted every square inch they could find with wheat," Dorfman said. However, the wheat disruption has primarily affected prices and famine in Africa, where many countries import their wheat from Russia and Ukraine. "The people who specialize in development economics and famine relief are in universal agreement that the answer is not to try to ship wheat to places like that, but to give them money to provide financial aid," Dorfman said. "There is still enough wheat out there, but these places might need aid because it costs more." -Maria M.
