Come work for a great team!

I'm celebrating 1 year as editor of Farm and Dairy by hiring a new editorial staffer to write and copy edit for us. If you're in eastern Ohio, western Pennsylvania or the northern panhandle of West Virginia, know how to write and copy edit and want a cool flexible job, check it out! If you know someone who fits that description, let them know about this!

I want to highlight some remarkable work studying the ecology of feral hemp (Link: https://lnkd.in/eia6K9Yy). This work was led by Tori Ford at the USDA-ARS Hemp Germplasm Laboratory. Specifically, Tori wanted to understand the ecological niche of Midwest hemp populations that escaped from cultivation, most likely in the 1940s. They gathered occurrence data (latitude and longitude) from many different locations across the Midwest (e.g., utilizing datasets gathered by Shelby Ellison and Aina Ademola) and a large suite of publicly available ecological predictors (including climate and soil data). They applied a Maxent algorithm to understand the current and predicted climate-change ecological niche of feral Cannabis. Tori projected the current models forward under several climate change scenarios: “negligible”, “terrible”, and “meltdown”. Fascinatingly, feral cannabis ecological niche generally EXPANDED under many of these climate change scenarios. We believe that this work (a) is consistent with hemp as a climate change resilient crop, (b) underscores the deep value of these feral genetic resources (see work done in the Ellison Lab https://lnkd.in/e3NjSa4r), and (c) helps guild long-term conservation efforts of hemp genetic resources (see https://lnkd.in/e8UvhYYC).
