Despite Growing Pains
COLUMBUS, Ohio Flooded
fields, reduced stands, seedling
blights, poor root development,
leaf defoliation, hail and wind
damage you name it, the com
crop bias suffered through it. But
despite the shaky growing sea
son, early yield projections are
rosy.
According to the Ohio Agricul
tural Statistics Service, yield pro
jections as of Aug. 1 are at 142
bushels per acre. If the number
stays true, it would make it
Ohio’s third-highest harvest in
history behind the 147 bushels

1992. The yield projections are
already 40 percent higher than
last year’s paltry 88 bushels per
acre harvested.
“The projection is a bit of a
surprise,” said Peter Thomison,
an Ohio State University Exten
sion agronomist. “With the soggy
soils we’ve had for much of the
year, we are very guarded about
what to expect in these fields.”
Thomison, an associate profes
sor with the Department of Hor
ticulture and Crop Science, said
that early-season saturated soils
played havoc with com root de
velopment, resulting in shallow
roots. Any late-season stresses on
the crop, such as hot,
dry weather or diseases,
could still impact the
crop, causing a drop in
yields.
