Global Cooling Killed Maine Potato Crop

Not only has it been RAINY, but it has been a DAMN COLD SUMMER, too!!!

"A very rainy season threatens potato crop

Maine potato farmers fear that they will lose some of their crop because of higher-than-normal rainfall this summer. Don Flannery of the Maine Potato Board says there will be some areas, especially low-lying areas in the St. John Valley, that cannot be harvested. The National Weather Service in Caribou says precipitation has accumulated over the past 10 months at a greater rate than at any time since records have been kept.

Oh, the GREAT NEW ENGLAND FLOOD you never heard about!!!!


Flannery says the rain has prevented farmers from spraying their crops, and that is allowing late blight to attack potatoes. Late blight is most damaging in wet and humid weather, causing lesions on the leaves of potato plants. It can wipe out entire fields (AP)."

Yeah, wet and humid -- NOT HOT!!!!


But don't expect the AGENDA-PUSHERS at the BG to acknowledge that -- not after they have devoted years to selling the lie!
