Update from Florida SARE - March 1, 2017

Farmers! We Need Your Ideas About 'Intermediated' and Other Markets

A new study, funded by USDA, and led by Syracuse University, New York University, the Pennsylvania State University, and the National Center for Appropriate Technology (NCAT) seeks to examine local and regional agricultural production and intermediated markets. The study will examine the opportunities and risks of four main marketing opportunities for farmers—direct-to-consumer, direct-to-institution, direct-to-retail, and selling to intermediaries (such as distributors or food hubs), who in turn sell the products as local food. We are interested in all farmers' perceptions of these markets, whether currently selling to these markets or not. The survey has several intended benefits for farmers, including the identification of technical assistance and information needs to help scale up farms for marketing to intermediaries. A national outreach and technical assistance program, conducted by NCAT's ATTRA Program (National Sustainable Agriculture Information Service) will be developed based on the results of this research.

Strawberry Industry Survey

If you're a strawberry grower, nurseryman, or Extension Educator or advisor to strawberry growers – WE NEED YOUR INPUT! The National Strawberry Sustainability Initiative (NSSI) is leading efforts to identify the critical research and outreach needs of the strawberry industry and to develop a project around these issues through the support of the USDA Specialty Crop Research Initiative. The NSSI is a collaboration among universities, USDA-ARS, strawberry growers and the strawberry industry, across 13 states, with the goal to support and expand sustainable strawberry production.  Please contribute to this national strawberry industry needs assessment by taking this survey. It should take 10-15 minutes and your answers will remain anonymous.  The survey can be accessed here directly, or through a link on our NSSI website, http://strawberry.uark.edu. For questions about the project or the survey, please contact Heather Friedrich at heatherf@uark.edu or 479-575-2798

 

 

SARE News

 

 

SARE's Revised How to Conduct Research on Your Farm or Ranch Now Available

On-farm research revealed that the extra space and light made no difference in the amount of forage produced. Although research is challenging and time consuming, it helped Cope refine his ideas about cover crop management. Now, SARE's newly revised How to Conduct Research on Your Farm or Ranch is available to help more experimenting farmers like Cope succeed.

 

 

Cover Crops Reduce Pests/Improve Yields
Preliminary research from University of Florida has found that incorporating root-knot nematode-resistant cover crops in a perennial peanut rotation reduces pest numbers in the cash crop and improves yields.

 

 

Essential Oils Reduce Fruit Decay

University of Florida researchers, through a Southern Sustainable Agriculture Research & Education grant, have found a natural method of reducing post-harvest citrus fruit decay.

 

 

On-Farm Research Bulletin Updated

This 32-page bulletin outlines how to conduct research at the farm level, offering practical tips for both crop and livestock producers, as well as a comprehensive list of more in-depth resources.

Business Retention and Expansion IST Training #31366

March 8-10, 2017 in Apopka, FL

Visit http://pdec.ifas.ufl.edu to register – up to 12 Crop Advisor Professional Development CEUs will be offered.
The Florida Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education Program (UF/IFAS and FAMU) is partnering with Ohio State University Extension to provide a 2.5 day training on community-led BR&E programs. The BR&E program is designed to assist communities by improving the business climate of the community, helping to make local businesses remain competitive, increasing employment, and stabilizing the local economy. The program provides the resources, training, and tools to develop the capacity of the community to better understand its economy. The program also offers other outcomes of such community engagement including a streamlined BRE process that enables local leaders to focus on planning, action, and results; a database of local information; and a more robust local economy.

 

This training program will help build capacity among county Extension faculty to respond to agriculture and food related business needs in their communities. This program will encourage country faculty of multiple disciplines to interact with agriculture and food related businesses in their counties and with other county faculty addressing sustainable agriculture in their programming. Participants of this training will be able to:

1.     Develop and implement a strategy to build a database of information that identifies the strengths and weaknesses of the local economy specifically related to agriculture and food related businesses

2.     Implement data-driven strategies and provide more informed guidance to community and economic development decision-makers that will lead to the retention and expansion of existing agriculture and food related businesses

 

Our overall approach to meeting these objectives involves utilizing existing resources developed by The Ohio State University (OSU). Two faculty members from OSU will facilitate this training program. They will provide all materials and resources county faculty need to implement the BRE program in their county, including valid instruments for collected data on food and agriculture related businesses. The training will consist of three workshops. Each section of the workshop prepares the county faculty in a different phase of the overall BRE process: "Coordinator Workshop", "Task Force Workshop", and the "Data Analysis and Reporting Strategies Workshop". We will also be conducting practice business visits which will allow county faculty to conduct a business assessment at a food or agriculture related business.

AFHVS/ASFS Annual Meeting and Conference

June 14-17, 2017 in Los Angeles, CA

Occidental College is pleased to host the Joint 2017 Annual Meetings and Conference of the Agriculture, Food, and Human Values Society (AFHVS) and the Association for the Study of Food and Society (ASFS). The conference theme, "Migrating Food Cultures: Engaging Pacific Perspectives on Food and Agriculture," invites us to reflect on and engage with the entirety of the Pacific region. The conference setting of Los Angeles, California, is a dynamic, diverse, and multiethnic global city that serves as a gateway, destination, and waypoint. Much of the food itself in California is produced in part by migrating workers and immigrants; indeed, the food scene in Los Angeles is the result of migrating food cultures. We use our conference's location to invite participants to imagine and explore how the agricultural and food worlds throughout the Pacific mesh with environmental, social, cultural, historical, and material resources. We likewise invite participants to examine the roles of people, place, innovation, food production, and consumption, with attention to how these roles reflect and reinforce the social, economic, and cultural food landscapes of the Pacific.
