In 2019, Ohio farmers experienced shocks that tested the limits of Ohio agriculture. Heavy rains affected planting and harvesting times, economic turbulence contributed to lower commodity prices, and nonfarm economic growth pushed farmland costs up. To learn how farmers were impacted, researchers in the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences at The Ohio State University created The Ohio Farm Poll. On this Our Ohio Weekly, find out about the newly released results.
00:00 – Ohio State University’s College of Food Agriculture and Environmental Sciences’ School of Environment and Natural Resources’ Dr. Douglas Jackson Smith, Dr. Shoshanah Inwood and Dr. Andrea Rissing talk about The Ohio Farm Poll, what the results told us and future plans for the poll.
23:50 – When you think of bison, what comes to mind? Rolling pastures, tumbleweeds and a sandy desert? You probably don’t think about Ohio. On this “To the Beat of Agriculture,” meet bison farmers from Grove City.
32:20 – Ohio farmers were the target of a new poll regarding animal agriculture. Ohio Farm Bureau Senior Director of State and National Policy Brandon Kern has the myths and the facts about the poll results.

The issue of property taxation remains as one of the biggest challenges our members face today. Ensuring agricultural property is valued for its agricultural potential and not development is critical to the continued success of Ohio agriculture.
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
Because we are younger farmers just starting out, Farm Bureau has a lot of good opportunities and resources to help us grow in the future.
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.
