Notable Ohio Farm Tour Highlights Mohawk to Malabar
The second day included停 Mohawk dam lunch in Mohican State Forest and tours of Blubaugh and Malabar farms. Cosmos Blubaugh, called the grand old man of Ohio agriculture, described starting from 140 acres with three cows and low fertility. He and his two sons now own over 300 acres with 40 in orchard and a new 10 by 25 foot grass silage silo. Strawberries and raspberries supported early years as he rebuilt soil and productivity. The group also visited the Northern Ohio Artificial Breeding Unit at Tiffin with a stud herd including Holsteins and other breeds and ship gemen to branch units.
