Option c) Long growing seasons and adequate moisture in most years allow a wide variety of crops to be produced.
- Georgia has a subtropical somewhat humid climate. Winters are cool, while summers are hot and muggy. Most of the state's rainfall is caused by moist air coming from the Gulf of Mexico. Rainfall for the barrier islands and coastal regions is provided by the Atlantic Ocean.
- Since Georgia's largest industry is agriculture, the effects of climate change will have a significant negative economic impact on our state, but they may also present opportunities for farmers to grow new crops or modify their rotational practises to benefit from longer growing seasons and possibly less frost.
- Sharecropping and tenant farming replaced slavery and the plantation system in the South after the Civil War. White landowners, who were frequently former plantation slaveowners, engaged into agreements with destitute farmworkers to work their properties under sharecropping and tenant farming systems.
- The destruction caused by war, the difficulty to keep a work force free of slavery, and the unfavourable climate had a terrible impact on agricultural output. Cotton, the state's main cash crop, decreased from a record of over 700,000 bales in 1860 to less than 50,000 in 1865, while corn and wheat harvests were similarly scant.
