Extension service head unsure on fate of federal cuts
Ohio State Extension Service director Mike Sprott says it may take another month to gauge federal budget cut effects on the program. A hiring freeze is a potential cost cut, but other options will be considered, with 85 percent of the budget in salaries. If Gramm Rudman cuts 43 percent nationwide, the service could lose about half a million dollars, he added. He expects a clearer picture by early February.
