I looked at the calendar last week and thought “that can’t be right, it’s almost Christmas!”Whoa, seemed like yesterday was Labor Day.

Hobcaw Barony is one of the state’s most precious resources. With 16,000 acres of undeveloped maritime forest, its ecosystem impacts the entire East Coast. Hobcaw is owned by a private founda-tion created by former owner Belle Baruch. In her will, she mandated that the property be used for research in forestry, marine biology, and wildlife.

Four universities are sharing this bountiful preserve. The Univer-sity of South Carolina, Coastal Carolina, Clemson, and Francis Marion University have separate research insti-tutes.

during the holidays. The typical dairy cow produces about 6 1/2 gallons of milk each day. That is a lot of dairy that can be used to make eggnog, custard, pies, cakes and other holiday favorites. Furthermore, Santa is expected to consume nearly 137 million gallons worth of dairy products on Christ-mas Eve!

WISHING YOU AN AGRICULTURAL CHRISTMAS

Nearly 25 to 30 million real trees are sold per year showing how Christ-mas tree production plays a role in the holidays. Each year Americans spend nearly $7 billion on wrapping paper coming from our timber growers to wrap presents for ones they hold near and dear. If everyone wrapped packages like me, that

number would definitely go up.

Finally is the value of the agricultural image portrayed in numerous media. A very important idea in the agricultural message is its image of integrity and hard work— that America still values the dedication of farm families to maintain a

way of life and supply our country with so many essentials. That appreci-ation for the average American is probably at peak around Christmas.

For those of us who know, it’s not just at Christmas when we appreciate our farmers.

“We focus on what we’re best at,” said Dr. Skip Van Bloem, director of the Baruch Institute for Coastal Ecology and Forest Science at Clemson. He joked that “This is the place where USC and Clemson get along the best.” Each university has its own research lab with specific areas of study.

The newest institute, developed by Francis Marion University and Coastal Carolina, focuses on archae-ology, anthropology, and historical research. One project is reestablishing longleaf pine, which used to be the dominant tree in the Southeast. The former 90 million acres have been logged down to 3 million, and the Baruch Foundation is managing

the property for longleaf. As a bonus, the endan-gered red cockaded woodpecker nests in living pine trees, and the 23 woodpecker families are closely monitored.

“We manage the property for research and also for income,” Chastain said, explaining that the centu-ries-old practice of prescribed burning is good for the forest and for wildlife.

Over the past few decades, researchers from 52 colleges across the United States have studied the unique ecology and history of the land. Scholars from as far away as China make regular visits to Hobcaw to expand their research of the eco-system.

FLORENCE – Once again at the next SC AgriBiz & Farm Expo, women engaged in agriculture will experience outstanding programs and opportuni-ties to expand their knowledge.

The Women’s Track will begin Wednesday, Jan. 23, at the opening session, which will be led by Michele Payn of Cause Matters Corporation. Michele has worked with farmers in more than 25 countries and understands the ag journey and challenges. She is known for being a passionate advocate of agricul-ture and the total agrifood system.

The speaker will lead two informative, beneficial sessions: “Celebrating Agriculture” and “Champi-oning Agriculture,” in which she helps women learn how to develop a personal farm story and demonstrate their passion for farming.

During Wednesday’s lunch, Jan Nirri, the owner of Success Factor Consultants, will share “Online Marketing: What You Thought You Knew.” Jan is a graduate of both Annie’s Project and SC New and Beginning Farmers. Her engaging workshop will share the best ways for marketing individual businesses and how to get the most out of the many marketing tools utilized today.

WOMEN IN AG IS NEW TOPIC FOR 2019 AGRIBIZ EXPOLater on Wednesday afternoon, Michele Payn will return to bring a program especially target-ing women on the farm, “Farm Like a Girl.” This presentation will be fun, informative and beneficial to help grow any farming operation.

On Thursday, Jan. 24, the Women’s Track will include “Sowing the Seeds for Tax Reform Change” and “Tractor 101.” Rachel Nightengale of Dixon Hughes LLC will share information regarding the new tax reform bill, which includes the most signif-icant changes to the tax code in the past 30 years.

Tractor 101, developed and presented by experts at Clemson Extension, will be a hands-on workshop. Attendees will learn the basics of running and maintaining a tractor safely.

“As you can see, great programming has been devel-oped and is available –free–for your benefit,” said expo executive director Jody Martin. “We thank the sponsors for supporting the Expo and making the two-day showcase an event for all to attend.”

He encouraged everyone interested in agriculture to save the date and bring others to enjoy all things agriculture at the seventh annual expo, Jan. 23 and 24 at the newly renovated Florence Center.

undisturbed ecosystem. Dr. Matt Kimball, assis-tant director of USC’s marine field lab, explained that Winyah Bay is the third largest estuary on the East Coast. North Inlet on the east side of Hobcaw Barony is undeveloped and undisturbed, making it is one of the most important watersheds in the world. The university keeps tabs on about 70 projects a year, from monitoring water quality to studying the salinity of the water.

Hurricane Hugo destroyed the old lab in 1989, but a state-of-the-art structure overlooking the marsh is the ideal environment for researchers from around the world.

“It’s like a little campus in the woods,” Dr. Kimball said. Scientists from as far away as China make repeated trips to the lab to study the environment.

One project studies tarpon, a species of fish not known to frequent South Carolina waters. They are prolific off the coast of Georgetown, and the lab has established a tarpon nursery to monitor this popular sport fish, from fingerling size to about 18 inches.

The Clemson lab has a different focus. The Insti-tute of Coastal Ecology and Forest Science concen-trates on three research thrusts: wildlife, forestry, and fresh water quality. For example, alligators are good sentinels for water quality, and the marsh is an established habitat for migratory waterfowl.

LEARNING BEGINS ‘BETWEEN THE WATERS’CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

FOUNDATION MAKES HOBCAW AVAILABLE TO

RESEARCHERS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD

As people and businesses move to South Caroli-na's coast, more natural lands are being converted to urban uses. Scientists at the Baruch Institute have studied the coastal environment for more than 50 years, including the environmental impact of changing land-use patterns, coastal natural resource conservation, forestry, water quality and watershed management.

The research provides information to help decision-makers manage growth so the state's coastal environment can be preserved for future generations.

The trustees of the foundation have entered long-term research agreements with the University of South Carolina, Clemson University, Coastal Carolina University and Francis Marion University to create permanent research institutes.

Hobcaw Barony offers research opportunities for faculty and students in an ecological reserve of forests, high-salinity marsh estuaries, and brackish and freshwater marshes

Fifty years ago, the Clemson University Belle W. Baruch Institute of Coastal Ecology and Forest Science was established “to conduct research and education programs focused on the ecology and management of the natural resources of the coastal region of South Carolina for the betterment of the state’s citizens.”

The mission of the University of South Carolina Belle W. Baruch Institute for Marine Biology and Coastal Sciences is “to conduct research and support education to improve the management of marine and coastal resources and advance basic science for the well-being of people and their environment.” The Institution has maintained the Baruch Marine Field Laboratory since 1972.

Francis Marion and Coastal Carolina’s Belle W. Baruch Institute for South Carolina Studies is “to engage in the study and research of the cultural, historical, and archaeological heritage of South Carolina.”

Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue has designated four South Carolina counties as primary natural disaster areas. Producers who suffered losses due to excessive flooding and wind caused by Hurricane Florence that occurred Sept. 14 may be eligible for U.S. Department of Agriculture Farm Service Agency emergency loans.

This designation allows FSA to extend much-needed emergency credit to producers recovering from natural disasters. Emergency loans can be used to meet various recovery needs including the replacement of essential items such as equipment or livestock, reorganization of a farming operation or the refinance of certain debts.

Chesterfield, Dillon, Horry and Marlboro counties are eligible to apply for emergency loans. The deadline to apply is July 8, 2019. FSA will review the loans based on the extent of losses, security available and repayment ability.

FSA has a variety of additional programs to help farmers recover from the impacts of this disaster. FSA programs that do not require a disaster declara-tion include: Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honeybees and Farm-Raised Fish Program; Emergency Conservation Program; Livestock Forage Disaster Program; Livestock Indemnity Program; Operating and Farm Ownership Loans; and the Tree Assistance Program.

Farmers may contact their local USDA service center for further information on eligibility requirements and application procedures. Additional information is available online at farmers.gov/recover.

of student success through their hard work and cooperation,” said national FFA chief executive officer Mark Poeschl.

President Donald Trump spoke to about 10,000 FFA members and guests on the last day of the convention. "You are amazing people," Trump said. "Your time in the FFA, in the field, in the farm, in the land and in the classroom has not only prepared you for a stellar, great career in something you love, it's taught you essential truths about life and about the world in which we live. You know that success only comes through hard work and perseverance."

The week concluded with SC FFA President Erica Wearing attending a round-table luncheon with US Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue. During the last day, 22 SC FFA members earned their American Degree, which is the highest degree achievable in the national organization.

The National FFA Organization provides leader-ship, personal growth and career success through agriculture education to the 669,989 student members who belong to one of the 8,630 local FFA chapters throughout the U.S., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

COTTON HARVESTINGGood cotton pickers sweep through a field cleanly, leaving a clear line between stripped stalks and unpicked bolls. Due to an extremely wet fall, some farmers are still trying to get the last of their cotton harvested.

The South Carolina Forestry Commission is encour-aging landowners to place their tree seedling orders for winter planting while they are still available.

ArborGen’s Taylor Nursery in Edgefield County has more than 600,000 seedlings left for sale at special landowner pricing for South Carolina residents. These seedlings include containerized, genetically improved longleaf pine and a variety of hardwoods. Among the remaining hardwoods are Sawtooth oak, Northern red oak, dogwood, persimmon and yellow poplar, not to mention Christmas tree selections.

“This is the first year that Arbor-Gen has operated the Forestry Commission’s Taylor Nursery, and we’re excited about the win-win situation our partner-ship has created,” said Tim Adams, SCFC Resource Development Director.

“Landowners will benefit from being able to buy ArborGen’s genetics at Forestry Commission prices. ArborGen will also be able to expand production to help landowners, such as those replanting after

Coastal bird populations face habitat loss, human disturbance, predation and sea level rise. An innovative public-private partnership needs to raise $1.2 million by Dec. 14 to address the problem in South Carolina.

Populations of many coastal bird species have declined by 70 percent during the last 60 years, and the Palmetto State is a critical link in preserving these birds. Crab Bank, one of five seabird sanctu-aries owned by the SC Department of Natural Resources, has provided nesting habitat for as many as 5,000 birds in a single season, including colonies of brown pelicans, terns, black skimmers, egrets and herons, and American oystercatchers. Due to wave erosion and Hurricane Irma in 2017, all the available nesting habitat on Crab Bank was washed away.

PROJECT CAN PROTECT THREATENED COASTAL BIRDSA long-awaited dredging project to deepen the channel in Charleston Harbor holds the key to saving Crab Bank. Overseen by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the “Post-45” Charleston Harbor Deepening Project could restore many as 80 acres with the dredged material. Crab Bank could provide 28 acres of nesting habitat.

“Crab Bank, if renourished, can produce hundreds of thousands of young birds over the next 50 years,” said SCDNR Wildlife Biologist Felicia Sanders.

The Coastal Bird Conservation Program has until December 2018 to raise the funds needed to help cost-share the renourishment of Crab Bank. The project has raised $340,000 so far.

LAST CHANCE FOR ARC APPSThe final day for seed cotton producers to submit applications for the Agricul-ture Risk Coverage and Price Loss Coverage programs crop is December 7. Seed cotton is a covered commodity, replacing generic base acres.

Owners of a farm with generic base acres as of September 30, 2013, and a recent planting history of covered commodities, have a one-time opportunity to allocate generic base acres. If the entire process is not completed by the deadline, FSA will have no valid contract on file and there will be no possibility for program payments.

Farmers should call their local FSA offices immediately to complete the attribution, yield update, program election and enrollment process, or visit farmers.gov.
