Don’t know about South Korea, but here in Southern New Mexico, it got down to 25 degrees overnight - I’m afraid to go out and look at my garden this morning... :~(

I wonder if the volcanic dust cloud is dropping temps up North?

Agriculture in northern climes could benefit from global warming. Agriculture everywhere cannot survive global cooling and lack of sunshine for seed germination and plant growth. Some scientists are warning that the cap and trade limits on pollutants could damage the blanket of air that keeps soil warm...a typical unintended consequence of big-government ignorance in legislating “cures” that are worse than the problems they intended to fix.

I bet you thought the global warming lies would save you, didn’t you.

That's really bad. It should have been balmy mid-60’s at this time of the year in SK.

The good news is, Koreans know how to compost the plant material and recycle it as kimchi.

Weather has been strange here in SC lately, Tuesday was so cool some people wore a jacket all day long, today the high is supposed to be 88 and tomorrow 95. We haven’t had a good rain since back in March. I am trying to grow cantaloupes on a quarter of an acre and I have to use a water hose to get the seed to germinate. Plowing eight inches deep turns up no real moisture, we had about eight tenths of an inch of rain at my house for the past five weeks. If it doesn’t rain soon I may as well forget it, I don’t have an irrigation system that will compensate for zero rain.

North Korea is presumably far worse with the cold weather food production problem.

Ike, I’m in Roswell, we are just now putting the garden out almost 3 acres.

Everyone around here planted early and the wind over the last few days just beat the heck out of the plants, I hope its now time but we will see.

Thanks to the American Farmer, WE have so many foodstuffs and feedstuffs that we can burn them to heat our homes and fuel our cars AND WE STILL HAVE TOO MUCH!
