Note: Due to lack of registrations, the event was cancelled.

Ohio State University Extension’s Mahoning County office is hosting a field day on how to properly manage weeds and manure on farms.

Jeff Stachler, OSU Extension agriculture and natural resources educator, and Glen Arnold, OSU Extension educator and field specialist in manure nutrient management systems, will discuss how to best manage livestock nutrients and control invasive weeds, such as Palmer amaranth.

The field day will be at Martig Farms, a dairy operation housing about 1,000 dairy cows. The large size of the dairy herd and therefore the large amount of manure it generates are the reasons this farm was chosen for the event.

Registration for the event is $5 per participant, which covers the cost of lunch and program handouts. For more information, contact the Mahoning County Extension office at 330-533-5538.
