When to Cut Soybeans for Hay in Ohio
Ohio State agronomy expert J B Park advises letting soybeans reach full pod size with leaves still on, ideally by Sept 1 in the north and Sept 5–10 in the south, for highest hay yield and protein. He notes leaf protein declines while seed protein rises, but late seeds hinder curing due to woody stems and green seeds. curing conditions and windrow techniques affect quality.

Corn Reserve Seen As Shield For Markets And Farmers
Ohio State University economist W R Wertz argues for larger corn reserves to stabilize markets. He notes past shortages during droughts, the 1934 1936 carryover gaps, and the Ever Normal Granary program begun in 1938 to convert surplus into usable feed. Resealing corn helps build a reserve to prevent price drops and livestock overproduction.

Ripeness Drives Peach Size and Quality
Peach specialist Leon Havis of the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station notes that peaches increase in size and quality as they mature. Elberta peaches gain about one third in size in the final 10 days before softening, with sugar content differences notable. Ground color and pressure tests guide harvest timing, with color often enough after experience. harvesting two or three times per tree may maximize size and quality for market.
