Episode 73 – Ohio Farm Poll

The 2020 Ohio Farm Poll took a pulse of Ohio farmers and revealed some interesting findings. The three major takeaways we discuss with Dr. Douglas Jackson-Smith and Dr. Shoshanah Inwood are: 2019 stress test revelations; Impact differences based on farm size and type; and Farm survival’s link to household well-being. Drs. Jackson Smith and Inwood are rural sociologists in the School of Environment and Natural Resources at The Ohio State University.

Episode 72 – Winter Impact on Cover Crops

We have been monitoring different species of cover crops throughout the winter to see how each one breaks down or survives. If you are interested in planting cover crops but concerned about what spring planting conditions may be like, this is the podcast for you. Jason Hartschuh, Crawford County, and Mary Griffith, Madison County, join us as we hit a variety of cover crops and what they look like in April after the 2021 winter. To see the cover crops, visit youtube.com/c/OSUAgronomicCrops under the Cover Crops playlist.
