Agricultural knowledge limits cited at Ohio State meeting
Dr. J. B. Park of Ohio State University warned the rural program committee that rapid gains in farming knowledge have not produced reliable forecasts for variety selection. He said breeders and extension have yet to solve how to predict county level performance for wheat oats and corn and to identify best legumes. He noted extension has spread new wheat varieties across a quarter of Ohio, achieved by the state experiment station, yielding 2 to 10 extra bushels per acre with no extra inputs.
