GENERAL ASSEMBLY MEETS FOR THREE DAYS; GOVERNOR ANNOUNCES VACCINATION SITES
The Georgia General Assembly met for three days this week, bringing us to the 19th legislative day. Earlier this week the Governor signed the Amended FY21 Budget which included no new agency cuts, furloughs, layoffs or new taxes. The House has continued work on the FY22 budget and other legislation continues to be introduced, heard by committees, and voted on. Both the Senate and House Agriculture and Consumer Affairs Committees met this week taking up mostly legislation related to consumer protection issues. Lawmakers will return to the Capitol on Monday, which will mark the halfway point of this year’s session. 要跟上影响格鲁吉亚农业的立法，请参阅下面的本周行动和利益法案部分.

GOVERNOR BRIAN KEMP SIGNS AMENDED FY2021 BUDGET
On Monday afternoon, Governor Brian Kemp - joined by Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan, Speaker of the House David Ralston, and other legislative leaders - signed the $26.5 billion amended FY21 (AFY21) budget. The AFY21 budget required no additional agency cuts, no furloughs, no layoffs, and no new taxes for the state's residents. It prioritized funding for essential workers including those in healthcare and education, and it also allocated $20 million to expand rural broadband access.
With the AFY21 budget signed, lawmakers continued work on the FY22 budget this week.

MODERNIZING AD VALOREM EXEMPTION FOR AGRICULTURE
A few years ago, Georgia Farm Bureau (GFB) worked closely with Rep. Sam Watson (R-Moultrie) to pass legislation modernizing the definition of a “farm entity” within the CUVA program to reflect the way many farms are currently structured. While originally only family-owned property was allowed in the program, his change acknowledged the trend of consolidated farm ownership prevalent in today’s industry, 声明由两个人组成的农场实体也是符合条件的.
This problem has surfaced again, this time relating to the ad valorem tax exemption of farm equipment and products. Rep. 沃森也在为这一豁免寻求同样的解决方案，以反映该行业向整合农场结构的转变. While only a few instances have emerged targeting co-owned farms with significant tax bills, 如果FSA继续推进农场数量的重新整合，这在未来可能会变得更成问题. Unlike the solution reached with CUVA, the change to the ad valorem exemption requires approval by voters in a referendum. House Bill 498 provides the ad valorem tax exemption for farm entities made up of individually qualified owners and directs a statewide referendum process in November 2022 to enact it.

DEBATE OVER DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME HITS CAPITOL
关于乔治亚州对日光节约时间的立场，两项反对法案在州议会上被提出, stirring up concern from farmers statewide.
House Bill 44, introduced by Rep. Wes Cantrell of Woodstock, would require the state to observe daylight savings time as the official model year round. However, 只有国会授权各州全年实行夏令时，这一规定才会生效.
On the Senate side, Sen. Ben Watson of Savannah has introduced Senate Bill 100. This bill would require the state to observe standard time year round effective immediately. If Congress authorizes states to observe daylight savings time year round, the state would then observe daylight savings time.
When clocks "fall back" in November, they switch from daylight to standard time, allowing for brighter mornings and darker evenings. When clocks "spring forward" in March, they go from standard to daylight, allowing for longer periods of daylight in the evenings. A number of arguments can be made for both standard and daylight time, but many in Georgia's agricultural, natural resources, and recreational industries prefer daylight for that very reason - longer periods of daylight in the evening allow for more time outside on the farm, in the field, or on the golf course, positively affecting the mental and physical wellbeing of Georgians as well as boosting local economies.
乔治亚州农场局和美国农场局联合会都没有关于夏令时的现行政策, but we will continue to monitor these bills as they make their way through the legislature. If you are interested in contacting your legislators regarding these bills, you may do so by clicking here.
GEORGIA A TOP-10 EXPORTING STATE FOR THE FIRST TIME
Despite the challenges presented by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, Governor Kemp announced earlier this week that Georgia was ranked as a top-10 exporting state in 2020, an achievement the state has never seen before. Georgia exported $38.8 billion of goods last year, reaching 215 different countries and territories worldwide.
由于与中国签订了第一阶段的贸易协定，格鲁吉亚的家禽业得到了实质性的推动, signed in January of 2020. Georgia's exports to China increased by 45% last year. As a whole, Georgia's agricultural industry delivered $4.25 billion in global exports, maintaining its export totals from 2019.

GEORGIA STATE HOUSE DISTRICT 90 SPECIAL ELECTION
A special election was held this week for Georgia State House District 90, previously held by Pam Stephenson (D-Lithonia). Stephenson resigned from her position and candidacy in September.
There were six candidates, all democrats, vying for the seat. As no candidate received more than 50% of the roughly 3,000 votes cast, the top two contenders - Stan Watson and Angela Moore - will move on to a runoff election on March 9.

Federal News and Updates
2021 AEWR REVEALED
With the release of USDA’s Farm Labor Survey (FLS) on February 11, 使用H-2A计划的农民终于知道2021年他们必须支付H-2A工人的最低工资. Usually this wage rate, known as the Adverse Effect Wage Rate (AEWR), is known when the Farm Labor Survey is released in November, but changes in policy that were proposed and then struck down in the courts over the last four months delayed the Farm Labor Survey’s release, which in turn held up the AEWR announcement. The FLS reveals an average increase of $0.63 per hour, or 4.5%, from 2020 to 2021, though there are considerable regional differences.
There are eighteen regions that makeup the FLS. The Southeast region, including Georgia, saw one of the lowest increases in the AEWR from 2020 to 2021 with only a 0.9% increase. Only the Delta region (Arkansas, Louisiana, and Mississippi) had a lower increase at 0.4%. The national average gross wage rate for field and livestock workers increased by 2.6% for the 12-month period ending in December of 2020. The Southeast AEWR rate now sits at $11.81.

CFAP 2.1 APPLICATIONS DUE FEBRUARY 26
On January 15, USDA announced additional assistance through the Coronavirus Food Assistance Program. Since that announcement, the Biden administration has halted processing and payments pending review.

Producers have from January 19 through February 26 to submit new applications or modify existing applications if they have participated in the program already. For more information, click here.
REP. AUSTIN SCOTT BILL AIMS TO SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE CCC'S BORROWING LIMIT
Earlier this week, Georgia Representative Austin Scott (R) introduced H.R. 843, which would more than double the Commodity Credit Corporation’s (CCC) borrowing limit. Currently set at $30 billion, the cap has been in place since 1987. Scott’s proposal would bring the limit to a total of $68 billion, accounting for the inflation-adjusted value of the current $30 billion cap, put in place over 30 years ago.
The CCC has provided much-needed funding to farmers and ranchers since its inception. The majority of payments for many farm bill programs, as well as supplemental assistance for nutrition programs, stems from the CCC. Additionally, recent Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP), Market Facilitation Program (MFP), and disaster payments have stemmed from the CCC funding umbrella. In September, Congress had to replenish the CCC as funds ran perilously low, sparking the need for a higher borrowing limit.
