Blueberry farmers in Georgia have been hit by the third big frost in the last six years. The frost of March 13 destroyed many blueberries around the state due to temperatures that were too cold for too long for frost protection to work. The Southeast Farm Press noted some farmers thought the loss was 75 percent or more. Since then, another frost in northern Georgia occurred on April 10, but so far effects appear to be limited according to wine grape growers. I am waiting to hear about more frost losses due to the latest freeze event, but sometimes the damage takes a while to appear.
