Get Involved in On-Farm Research

Is there a product or growing practice you want to test on your farm? If so, consider hosting an eFields on-farm research trial this year. eFields is Ohio State University’s on-farm research program. Each year, a publication is released with trial details and results. You may find the electronic version of the 2020 eFields Report by going to the website. Hard copies are also currently available at the OSU Extension Paulding County office. 

Current eFields projects include the following: Corn Seeding Rate, Soybean Seeding Rate, Nitrogen Trials (Rate, Timing, Placement, & Source), Sulfur Rate, Corn Pop-up Fertilizer, Soybean Fungicide, Soil Health.

You can also work with ANR Educator Sarah Noggle to develop a custom study protocol. If you have any questions or are interested in learning more about hosting an on-farm trial, call 419-399-8225 or e-mail noggle.17@osu.edu.
