Climate change and farm management

Ohio’s state climatologist says climate change will continue to impact how farmers manage their operations.  Aaron Wilson is the ag weather specialist for Ohio State University Extension.  “What we need to manage for is a pretty rapid oscillation back and forth between very wet and very dry conditions,” he says. 

He tells Brownfield that water utilization will become increasingly more important in the coming years. “Thinking about storage of water in the long term,” he says.
