Apple Growers - Please Help a Grad Student by Filling out a Short Online Survey on Climate Change
November 30, -0001
My name is Michael Borrelli and I am a Masters of Arts candidate at Buffalo State College in the Great Lakes Ecosystem Science Program and I am conducting research on how climate change is impacting the apple industry in Western and Central New York. Having grown up on a family farm near Rochester, I have always had an interest in how changes in the environment and climate impact the natural and agricultural world.
In order to identify these impacts I need to reach out to apple growers, like yourselves, who are experiencing these impacts and challenges first hand. Your observations, stories and experiences are essential to this project. Working with Craig Kahlke from the Cornell Cooperative Extension, I have identified key questions for analysis that I would like your help in answering in the form of a 10 to 15 minute web survey located at :
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/orchard_survey
If you would prefer to do the survey on paper, face to face, or over the phone; my contact information is at the end of this email and we can set up a time. The data collected from the survey will be kept confidential and be used to complete my graduate thesis. Any results will be shared with the Cornell Cooperative Extension.
The goal of this research will be to identify what climate impacts apple growers have experienced in their orchards over time. Another secondary goal will be to identify what measures orchardists are taking to adapt to and mitigate the impacts of a changing climate going forward and how apple growers view its impact on their businesses and lively hood.
I would like to thank you for your interest in my research and feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns via email at borrelm01@mail.buffalostate.edu or my cell phone at 585-503-7546. I look forward to working with you!

November 30, -0001
Now is the time to renew your subscriptions to the Harvest Maturity Reports if you have not done so. Your $60 subscription (if in the Lake Ontario Fruit Program counties of Niagara, Monroe, Orleans, Oswego and Wayne) gets you critical information on a weekly basis during apple and pear harvest. Fruit samples are collected early in the week from across the region and sampled for internal ethylene concentration, firmness, starch/iodine, and total soluble solids. Results are summarized and recommendations for harvest windows of major apple and pear varieties are either faxed or emailed to subscribers late in the week. Satellite subscribers outside of the four county regions can receive reports as well, for $100.

Now is the time to renew your subscriptions to the Harvest Maturity Reports if you have not done so. Your $60 subscription (if in the Lake Ontario Fruit Program counties of Niagara, Monroe, Orleans, Oswego and Wayne) gets you critical information on a weekly basis during apple and pear harvest. Fruit samples are collected early in the week from across the region and sampled for internal ethylene concentration, firmness, starch/iodine, and total soluble solids. Results are summarized and recommendations for harvest windows of major apple and pear varieties are either faxed or emailed to subscribers late in the week. Satellite subscribers outside of the four county regions can receive reports as well, for $100.

My name is Michael Borrelli and I am a Masters of Arts candidate at Buffalo State College in the Great Lakes Ecosystem Science Program and I am conducting research on how climate change is impacting the apple industry in Western and Central New York. Having grown up on a family farm near Rochester, I have always had an interest in how changes in the environment and climate impact the natural and agricultural world.
In order to identify these impacts I need to reach out to apple growers, like yourselves, who are experiencing these impacts and challenges first hand.

The data collected from the survey will be kept confidential and be used to complete my graduate thesis. Any results will be shared with the Cornell Cooperative Extension.
The goal of this research will be to identify what climate impacts apple growers have experienced in their orchards over time. Another secondary goal will be to identify what measures orchardists are taking to adapt to and mitigate the impacts of a changing climate going forward and how apple growers view its impact on their businesses and lively hood.
