2018 eFields Research Report Released
January 9th
Sam Custer, OSU Extension
High quality, relevant information is key to making the right
management decisions for your farm. The eFields program at The Ohio
State University was created to provide local information about
critical issues for Ohio agriculture. The 2018 eFields Research Report
highlighting 95 on-farm, field scale trials conducted in 25 Ohio
counties will be released on January 9th. Research topics include
nutrient management, precision seeding, crop management, soil
compaction management, remote sensing, and data analysis and
management. To help identify trial locations that are similar to your
operation, each study includes information about weather, soil types,
and management practices. Additionally, economic analysis was added to
select trials this year. QR codes that link to videos featuring the
researchers and partner farmers are available in the report.
The 2018 report is now available in both a print and e-version. To
receive a printed copy, contact your local OSU Extension office or
email digitalag@osu.edu. The e-version can be viewed and downloaded at
go.osu.edu/eFields.
The eFields team has planned four regional results meetings to discuss
local results and gather information about research interests for 2019.
There is no cost to attend; for more information or to register for a
meeting, visit go.osu.edu/eFieldsMeeting. Please plan to join us for
