Biography:

AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY / INTERESTS

Applied research and extension programming on forage management systems. My extension and research programs are focused on helping producers utilize forages efficiently and profitably while protecting our natural resources and environment. I co-lead the OSU Extension Integrated Forage Management Team whose activities include training workshops, field days, short courses, newsletters, magazine articles, factsheets, bulletins, and on-farm research.

My research is field-based and focuses on forage management issues, extending the grazing season, integrated crop-livestock systems, integrated pest management in alfalfa, and performance of forage species and varieties under Ohio conditions. I collaborate with animal nutritionists, entomologists, plant pathologists, farm management specialists, and soil scientists to address practical questions faced by forage producers.
