MARKET BULLETIN South Carolina Department of Agriculture Est. 1913 Vol. 93 • Num. 8 April 18, 2019 COMMISSIONER’S CORNER HUGH E. WEATHERS SOUTH CAROLINA COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE Y ou can’t talk about South Carolina’s past, present or future without mentioning our rich agricultural, and, by extension, food traditions. Our food ways are an intersection of our state’s culture, tradition, history and cuisine. South Carolina has a number of trademark foods that serve as an icon for our state. For example, our official state vegetable, collards, have been a staple since colonial times. They are rich in vitamins and calcium and can help lower cholesterol. Now, collards are among the “in” foods, served by top chefs all over the state and across the country. Boiled peanuts are our official state snack. A recipe passed down through generations, they are a must-have at tailgates, summer picnics, and beach parties. Peanuts are a Top 10 cash crop in our state, and are a great source of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and protein. I’m not sure how widespread boiled peanuts are across the US, as they are an acquired taste. Our official state beverage is—you guessed it—milk. One of our state’s most recognizable dairy symbols over the years has been the rotating Coburg Cow in Charleston, only taken down from her perch during hurricanes. There is some truth to a rumor that several elections ago one of my sons slipped a Weathers campaign sticker around her neck. And don’t forget the Chick-Fil-A cows, who urge you to eat more chicken (also a South Carolina Top OUR ICONIC FOOD 10 commodity). I’ve always been amused because those Holsteins dairy cows are not in too much danger to end up as a hamburger. They are born and raised for milk. Peaches are our state fruit. One of our most recognizable food symbols is the giant Peachoid in Gaffney. This larger-than- life model serves to remind people that the Palmetto State is the largest producer of peaches on the East Coast. The superior flavor of our fruit makes South Carolina “the tastier peach state.” Another fruit recognized for its health virtues is the watermelon. Our SCDA folks gave out close to 46,000 samples of watermelon at the Cooper River Bridge Run earlier this month. What better way to promote this delicious fruit than to give it to athletes? They certainly enjoy it. Watermelon hydrates better than sports drinks and is better for you. Our new generation of foodies is particularly attuned to where food comes from, who grew it, and how it’s prepared. Specialty fresh foods and processed value-added products are available at Roadside Markets all over the state. Our Fresh on the Menu brand is enjoying enormous popularity, and Farm to Table restaurants are everywhere. In South Carolina we enjoy our historic icons and we love our great food, and our state has the great fortune to have an abundance of both. One message that has been emphasized to the inaugural class of the Clemson University Extension Emerging Leadership Initiative is that leadership isn’t only about giving orders, it’s also about giving back. For Lee Van Vlake, a Clemson Extension area livestock and forages agent who serves the Pee Dee region, developing that mentality has been among the program’s primary benefits. “I got into this program because I wanted to continue to build on my foundation to be a good leader and practice that servant attitude,” Van Vlake said. “And I think that’s one big thing I’ve taken away from this class: to be a good leader, you need to serve others.” The 19 members of the Extension Emerging Leadership Initiative program got the chance to give back in the Columbia community recently at Harvest Hope Food Bank. The food bank began in 1981 as the result of a shared vision of business leaders and the faith community who set out to provide for the hungry in Columbia. It has since increased its mission to feed the hungry across 20 counties of South Carolina, distributing more than 22.9 million meals last year and feeding approximately 40,425 people a week. “Today we’re going to be boxing up food for some low-income folks, and I’m looking forward to that,” Van Vlake said. “Again, it goes back to being a servant.” The Extension Emerging Leadership Initiative aims to groom the next generation of Clemson Cooperative Extension leaders. It was modeled after the President’s Leadership Institute, a nine-month leadership development program started by Clemson University President James P. Clements. Its objectives are to provide opportunities for personal growth and career development, enhance leaders’ roles, bolster cohesion and team-building among leaders, promote interpersonal skills and provide tools to enhance leadership. CLEMSON’S EMERGING LEADERSHIP CLASS WORKS WITH FOOD BANKS BY STEVEN BRADLEY, CLEMSON EXTENSION SERVICE The program selects up to 20 professionals at the county or state level with a minimum of three years of experience with Extension. For Anderson County 4-H youth development agent Jessica Simpson, the service project was not just an opportunity to give back through volunteering, it also provided ideas for other service projects that she could take back to her home county. “Our office is actually in the same building as a food pantry, and so we see a lot of the same clientele who are just trying to feed their families,” Simpson said. As a 4-H county agent, she hopes to use the experience at Harvest Hope to teach Anderson County youth the importance of serving their communities. “I’m really looking forward to being able to give back and to learn some things from a large-scale food bank that we can possibly implement as service projects for local 4-H’ers,” she said. “We met with legislators for 4-H Legislative Day and the big message to 4-H was, ‘We’re getting older and you guys have to fill our shoes.’ So if we don’t lead today’s generation to make educated, informed decisions, we could be in a mess. We’re developing tomorrow’s leaders now.” “The food drive is meaningful to me because it helps others in need and you’re helping people who are down right now and cannot help themselves,” Sumter County senior 4-H youth development agent Terri Sumpter said. “Being able to feed and provide for others, it’s just a good thing to do.” “Volunteering is a big part of being a leader,” said Zack Snipes, Extension county agent in Charleston. “It gets you down to your roots and lets you know that you’re serving a bigger purpose, a bigger goal. It’s a time to reflect. Some people aren’t as fortunate as we are, and we should help out wherever we can.” Greg Reighard, Clemson University Research and Extension horticulturist, speaks to the joint horticulture Extension teams from Clemson and Auburn universities during a tour of Musser Fruit Farm.

You can’t talk about South Carolina’s past, present or

For example, our official state vegetable, collards, have been a staple since colonial times. They are rich in vitamins and calcium and can help lower cholesterol. Now, collards are among the “in” foods, served by top chefs all over the state and across the country.
Boiled peanuts are our official state snack. A recipe passed down through generations, they are a must-have at tailgates, summer picnics, and beach parties.

TURF GRASS FIELD DAY ADDRESSES DEAD SPOTSFor turf grass managers, two major pest issues in spring are unsightly annual bluegrass (Poa annua) populations and extensive turf death from the disease, spring dead spot.
Clemson University is hosting a spring turf grass field day to demonstrate the latest control and management options for these two. Poa control will involve over-seeded and non-over-seeded Bermuda grass fairways and greens.

CLEMSON BLUE CHEESE EARNS TOP HONORS IN NATIONAL COMPETITION
Clemson University’s blue cheese made a big impression earlier this month in the cheesiest state of them all, placing fourth in its class at the 2019 U.S. Championship Cheese Contest.
This year’s team included Master Cheesemaker Anthony Pounders, with assistants Erica Adams and Adrien Bibb. “We’ve entered contests before, but this is the highest we’ve ever placed,” Pounders said. “We’re extremely proud.”
The contest was held in Green Bay, Wis., home of the Green Bay Packers, whose ever-faithful fans stuff Styrofoam cheese wedges on their heads. Clemson Blue Cheese also scored well in 2009, ranking 13th in its class of 44 competitors. This year, judges from 20 states evaluated 2,555 entries for winning characteristics including taste, texture and color.
Clemson’s entry, named Amick’s Choice, scored 97.5 points out of a possible 100 in the Blue-Veined Cheese Category. The first-and second-place winners in that class were commercial cheese companies from California and Wisconsin, respectively.
Clemson is the only school in the South that makes blue cheese — which is aged, salted and packaged on campus. Pounders has worked with the program for 23 years.
The history of Clemson Blue Cheese dates back to 1941, when a Clemson dairy professor cured the cheese in the damp air of Stumphouse Mountain Tunnel near Walhalla. Production was moved in 1958 to Clemson’s Newman Hall, where air-conditioned ripening rooms replicate the temperature and humidity of the old railroad tunnel.
Today, Pounders makes cheese the old-school way. A 600-gallon vat turns out 520 pounds of cheese, which is salted and aged 6 months. Once it is ready, he scrapes and packages the cheese by hand, a painstaking but necessary process. Watson Dorn, a Clemson grad and owner of Hickory Hill Farm in Edgefield, provides the milk, also made the old-fashioned way when the cream rises to the top of the bottle. It’s the same milk that goes into the university’s second dairy brand, Clemson’s Best™ Gourmet Ice Cream.

A new law expands the number of growers who can participate in the state’s hemp program and the amount of acreage they can grow. The hemp program, administered by the SC Department of Agriculture, previously allowed only 40 permits for up to 40 acres each.
Under the new state law, anyone who previously applied for a grower permit for 2019 will now be eligible to grow hemp in South Carolina, so long as they successfully pass a federal and state background check and provide required information.
The new law also removes the cap on acreage, which allows permitted growers to grow an unlimited number of acres.
For more information about the hemp program, please contact Vanessa Elsalah, 803-734-8339, [email protected] or visit agriculture.sc.gov.
