American Vegetable Grower editors Rosemary Gordon and Richard Jones discuss production trends, protected ag, GMO, and other trends as part of the 2016 State of the Vegetable Industry Report.

Vegetable growers embark on 2016 with cautious optimism as many plan to either increase production or keep their acreage the same as last year.

Responses to the State of the Industry survey highlight rampant optimism across the country.

In spite of the unusual weather last year — drought in the West and cold temperatures in the East — growers report they remain upbeat and will be replanting and expanding.
