Ohio Farm Bureau hosts statewide CAUV update webinar
The Statewide CAUV Update Webinar explained more about the recent changes in CAUV and what could be next for the program. Watch the recording.
Read MoreNext week, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and Heidelberg University’s National Center for Water Quality Research will release their official Lake Erie algal bloom forecast. Early indications are that this year’s bloom will be another mild one, with a less than 4 rating on a scale of 1 (mild) to 10 (severe). If realized, this will be the fourth bloom under a 4 rating in the past six years.
No matter how favorable the forecast is for mild algal blooms, critics of agriculture will be once again making claims about the agriculture industry’s impact on water quality that are simply not true.
