Bob Kemerait, a specialist at the University of Georgia in agriculture, recently published an article in Southeast Farm Press<\/em> on dealing with heat after nearly experiencing a heat stroke while doing corn fungicide research in very hot conditions. \u00a0In the article he muses on how increased warming might affect agriculture in the Southeast in the future. \u00a0In the article he mentions several resources available from the Southeast Climate Consortium on changes in climate in the Southeast as well as discusses changes in other parts of the world.<\/p>\n

He says “While the farmers in developing countries are dealing with effects many attribute to climate change without a deeper understanding and on a \u201cday-to-day\u201d basis, growers in the Southeast have the opportunity to become better informed and can take measures now to anticipate the potential for a changing climate on their crops.\u00a0 Farmers can push for improvements in crop production through research and varieties better able to resist drought, stress and pests through breeding.\u00a0 I firmly believe in preparing for the worst, but hoping for the best, both to keep the bear away and to prepare for what the future may hold.”<\/p>\n
