   Talk-n-dog Quoted:                                                                                                         Most of the nonbearing-tree acreage planted in 1987, 1988, and 1989 was in Florida's southern and east coast growing areas, but some included replacement trees in existing groves. The 1980's were laced with killing freezes in Florida. Major freezes occurred in January 1981, 1982, 1985, and 1986. December freezes occurred in 1983, 1985, and 1989. The January 1981 and December 1983 freezes were particularly hard. From 1980 to 1986, bearing citrus acreage dropped about 229,000 acres from 597,432 in 1980 to a decade low of 367,581 in 1986 (table 1a). From 1986 to 1990, bearing orange tree acreage increased 5 percent, or 19,342 acres. New plantings to replace freeze-damaged trees and to establish new groves nearly doubled nonbearing acreage between 1980 (about 50,600 acres) and 1986 (about 99,000 acres).

    An ignorant person is one who doesn't know what you have just found out

I'm ignorant, what did we just find out?

Two things, your ignorant and Global warming is pushing a warm weather crop south.


Also you could have learned that over 10 years 50% of the Orange crop had repeated freezes.

Learning that global warming won't destroy the planet $0.59 for a news paper...

Learning that your ignorant
