Walcher Embraces Minimum Tillage Amid Wet Year
Elroy Walcher and his sons run 1170 acres of field corn on Ohio 162 near North Fairfield. The farm tour by Huron County Extension highlighted chisel plow methods, tiling, and the impact of persistent rain on planting and yields. Senator Thomas E. Carney joined the event. Walcher notes the method keeps soil coarse, drains water faster, and may boost profits despite a lower-than-usual yield this year.
