Pilot project aims to improve water quality in Shallow Run watershed

By Sarah Donaldson sarah@farmanddairy.com

It’s been about four years since Ohio established its H2Ohio program to improve water quality around Lake Erie and in the state as a whole. In that time, 2,400 farmers have put 1.5 million acres into nutrient management plans and more than a million acres into best management practices to improve water quality.

The program focuses on reducing phosphorus runoff from farm fields, which contributes to harmful algal blooms in Lake Erie. However, researchers are still figuring out how much change will it take to fix the phosphorus problem, and what will it take to convince farmers to make those changes.

Report sparks debate over whether natural gas production in region has hit its peak

By Liz Partsch and Rachel Wagoner

SALEM, Ohio — Since 2008, 22 counties in Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia have been the source of 40% of the nation’s natural gas — but now this boom in natural gas extraction might be over.

Using data from the federal Energy Information Administration, the Ohio River Valley Institute concluded that the natural gas industry in the Marcellus and Utica shale region hit peak production in 2022, levels that won’t be equaled again for decades. This means the economic growth and local prosper-

ity promised by the Shale Gas boom will likely never come.

The report, an update of a similarly damning 2021 report, is being criticized by industry sources who called the data cherry-picked and off-base. They say it ignores all the good the industry has done in local communities.

“What we would tell (them) to do is look at the DNR data, which is actually reported data, not a guess, not an estimate, not a projection,” Mike Chadsey, public relations specialist for the Ohio Oil and Gas Association, told Farm and Dairy The report. Gathered from the EIA’s Annual Energy Outlook 2023,

the report from the environmental think tank states that natural gas production in the 22 gas-rich counties in Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia reached its peak in 2022 and won’t reach the same amount until 2045. As a result, by the year 2050, the report states, “Appalachia’s share of U.S. natural gas is expected to decline... to 37.5%.”

Instead, production in the Permian and Haynesville basins in the south and southwest will surpass Appalachia, becoming the next top dog in the country for producing natural gas.

“We know that these practices work at a field level … we don’t see evidence of these practices working at a watershed level,” said Jay Martin, professor of ecological engineering at Ohio State University. It’s hard to know exactly why, but it’s likely that the practices haven’t been adopted on a large enough scale to show results.

Watershed modeling suggests with 70% of its acres enrolled in best management practices, the watershed can reach a 40% reduction in phosphorus runoff. So far, adoption rates are probably about 25% to 30% at the highest. A recently-launched pilot project Martin is directing in the Shallow Run watershed, in Hardin County, is aiming to hit the 70% target.

“It’s important to learn what works at a watershed scale, which incentives farmers respond to and what practices work for farmers, and then take what we learned to other watersheds and perhaps even beyond,” Martin said.

Project. The project kicked off in July with a meeting at Jerry McBride’s farm in Dola, Ohio. So far, Martin and others involved have focused on getting the word out about the project,

their goals and the incentives available for farmers to get involved.

Practices supported by the project include soil testing, variable rate phosphorus placement, manure incorporation, overwinter cover, drainage water management, phosphorus removal structures, wetlands and buffers.

Incentives include anywhere from $40 to $120 per acre for nutrient management practices, depending on the practice and number of acres enrolled, or covering the full cost of practices like soil testing. For structural practices, like buffers, wetlands and phosphorus removal structures, incentives include covering the full cost of the project and additional payments.

“If you’re ever interested in trying any of these things that they’re offering … the incentives that are being offered this time are enough that you can afford to try a field or two,” McBride told Farm and Dairy Researchers are working with the Ohio Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources Conservation Service payment programs to offer financial incentives. Hardin Soil and Water Conservation District, Ohio State University Extension and ag retailers will also assist farmers with practices.

Pilot project aims to improve water quality in Shallow Run watershed

Watershed. Researchers chose Shallow Run watershed partly because there is a lot of data on that watershed. Laura Johnson, director of the National Center for Water Quality Research at Heidelberg University, and her team have been monitoring the watershed’s outlet for five years.

“There’s a historical record of water quality in this watershed,” Martin said.

Potato Run watershed is also nearby and has been monitored for five years. It’s a similar watershed, so researchers are using it as a control.

“If we get a wet year and we don’t see reductions in Shallow Run, but see increases in Potato Run, that gives us an indication that the practices are having an impact, but are being overwhelmed by additional rainfall,” Martin explained.

Researchers also picked Shallow Run watershed because the agriculture community in the area is supportive. Multiple ag retailers in the area were interested in the project and Hardin Soil and Water Conservation District has strong connections with farmers in the watershed.

Incentives. A major part of the project is understanding what incentives work to encourage farmers to adopt new practices.

“Higher payment rates are something we think will be effective,” Martin said, noting the project will offer higher rates than programs like H2Ohio offer on their own.

The project will also offer support for community projects in the village of Dunkirk, like library funding or funding for the local high school to make improvements. Farmers who participate will each get a vote on which community project to support each year. Farmers and ag retailers who participate will also have the opportunity to go on a charter fishing trip on Lake Erie in 2024 and 2026, Martin said.

“In order to transfer the results of this project to other watersheds, it’s really essential for us to understand which one or ones of the incentives are effective,” Martin said.

In McBride’s opinion, the answer is simple.

“Probably the biggest thing is, I look at it, and if it can save me money, then that’s the number one driving force,” McBride said. “Why put [fertilizer] where you don’t need it, and why spend the money if you don’t need to?”

On his farm, McBride has used a nutrient management plan and variable rate application for years. Extra financial incentives from NRCS programs didn’t hurt either, he added. They just about covered the costs of grid sampling, which helped him start those practices without additional costs.

He believes variable rate application and phosphorus incorporation are both practices that have a good chance of being adopted by more farmers.

“For the dollars they’re paying, it’s a no-brainer for me,” he said. “I don’t know why you wouldn’t want to try it. They’re basically paying for all of it upfront.”

For some, though, he added, fear of failure or preferring to keep doing things that are familiar keeps farmers from trying new practices.

“That’s two of the mindsets that I hear,” McBride said. “I don’t know how you’re ever going to change that mindset unless we get a new generation in there.”

Next steps. This fall, contracts will be made available for in-field practices for farmers interested in the program.

This winter, researchers will begin looking at structural practices, like phosphorus filters, buffer strips and more to see if farmers are interested and evaluate where they could be useful. The project will last through 2028.

In the meantime, organizers are setting up meetings with farmers and soil and water conservation district representatives to talk about the project and get farmers’ thoughts on it.

“You get to the local level and let the locals kind of decide what to do and how to do it, and you get a better response than someone from the education world trying to tell you what to do,” McBride said.

Supreme Court decision leads to weakened water regulations

By Michael Phillis, Matthew Daly and John Flesher

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Biden administration weakened regulations protecting millions of acres of wetlands Aug. 29, saying it had no choice after the Supreme Court sharply limited the federal government’s jurisdiction over them.

The rule would require that wetlands be more clearly connected to other waters like oceans and rivers, a policy shift that departs from a halfcentury of federal rules governing the nation’s waterways.

Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan said the agency had no alternative after the Supreme Court sharply limited the federal government’s power to regulate wetlands that do not have a “continuous surface connection” to larger, regulated bodies of water.

Justices boosted property rights over concerns about clean water in a May ruling in favor of an Idaho couple who sought to build a house near a lake. Chantell and Michael Sackett had objected when federal officials required them to get a permit before filling part of the property with rocks and soil.

The ruling was the second decision in as many years in which a conservative majority on the high court narrowed the reach of environmental regulations.

“While I am disappointed by the Supreme Court’s decision in the Sackett case, EPA and Army (Corps of Engineers) have an obligation to apply this decision alongside our

state co-regulators,” Regan said in a statement.

The rule, announced Aug. 29, revises a rule finalized earlier this year regulating “waters of the United States.” Developers and agriculture groups have long sought to limit the federal government’s power to use the Clean Water Act to regulate waterways, arguing the law should cover fewer types of rivers, streams and wetlands. Environmental groups have long pushed for a broader definition that would protect more waters.

The new rule is highly unusual and responds specifically to the Supreme Court ruling in the Sackett case. Typically, a rule is proposed, the public weighs in and then the federal government releases a final version. This rule changes existing policy to align with the recent Supreme Court decision and is final.

Damien Schiff, a senior attorney with the Pacific Legal Foundation who represented the Sacketts, said the Biden administration properly changed rules to eliminate unlawful criteria to protect wetlands. “Kudos to the agencies,” he said.

Still, Schiff said the rule ignored other ways that the court limited the reach of the Clean Water Act to protect certain streams and ditches. “I think this attempt to keep it vague, whether it is wisely strategic in a political sense, is just not legally sustainable,” he said.

A coalition of business groups was unhappy with the rule, too.

“Even worse, the agencies blocked public input and engagement in the revision process,” said Courtney Briggs, chair of the

industry group Waters Advocacy Coalition in a statement.

The ruling said federally protected wetlands must be directly adjacent to a “relatively permanent” waterway “connected to traditional interstate navigable waters,” such as a river or ocean. They also must have a “continuous surface connection with that water,” Justice Samuel Alito wrote.

The court’s decision broke with a 2006 opinion by former Justice Anthony Kennedy that said wetlands were regulated if they had a “significant nexus” to larger bodies of water. That had been the standard for evaluating whether developers needed a permit before they could discharge into wetlands. Opponents had long said the standards was vague, hard to interpret and generally unworkable.

The rule issued Aug. 29 removes the “significant nexus” test from consideration when identifying tributaries and other waters as federally protected.

The amended rule should “provide clarity and a path forward consistent with the (Supreme Court) ruling,’’ the EPA said.

Because the sole purpose of the new rule is to amend specific provisions of the previous rule that were rendered invalid by the high court, the new rule will take effect immediately, the EPA said.

The Supreme Court ruling was a win for developer and agriculture groups, though American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall said in a statement that the rule was still unfair to farmers.

“What is meant for you will come to you.”

That’s a quote that I live by when things I have really wanted have not worked out — or on the contrary, when they do and you realize your next journey is just beginning. I didn’t always know I wanted to write about the environment, however, from a young age I have loved being outside in nature.

Growing up in the South Hills of Pittsburgh, there wasn’t much of an outdoors to escape to except for my dad’s garden in the backyard and the nearby park. However, when I did

have the chance to escape the suburbs, my family and I would visit my grandparent’s farm in Johnstown, Pennsylvania — an old coal mining and steel town southwestern Pennsylvania.

Although Johnstown wasn’t the flourishing town it had been decades ago during its coal days, here was my oasis. My breath of fresh air, despite past decades of low air quality produced by the old steel mills. When we’d visit, we would spend all day outside, taking walks in the woods to the old maple house where they’d make maple syrup from the maple trees that surrounded its wooden structure. We would visit the cows, my favorite being a cow named Elizabeth, which was ironically named after I was born. In the summers, I would help pick blueberries and raspberries, eating so many I would get a stomach ache. And in the fall, we would pick apples to make applesauce — my grandmother’s applesauce being my favorite to date. It was my second home, my home away from home — but then I found a third.

After graduating high school, I attended Ohio University in Athens, Ohio. When I first arrived, I knew I wanted to be a journalist. However, it wasn’t until my junior year when

I took environmental and science journalism that I realized I wanted to write about nature. During my time at OU, I was privileged with the opportunity to travel outside the confines of the university and visit local produce auctions, farms, acid mine drainage sites, state parks and other places that helped me learn more about the area and history of southeastern Ohio.

I recognize my experiences with the environment and farming are different from those of you who put in the work every day and night to provide for your communities. However, I have always felt like a part of my Pittsburgh heart was divided between many places, constantly yearning for that escape into nature. I am so privileged to be granted the opportunity to work as a reporter at Farm and Dairy and am excited to not only learn from those of you in the community but to tell your important stories. What is meant for you will come to you, and I have found it. Please feel free to contact me at epartsch@farmanddairy.com.

Since 1890 lyleprinting.com

At the height of the mid-August heat wave, I was relieved when an old friend canceled his planned trip to attend a sprawling, old farm machinery show amid central Illinois’ endless, sweltering cornfields.

While both of us love to see Oliver 77s, Super Ms and Ford 9Ns of our youth, neither of us wants to be as sweaty or dirty during those admiring visits as we were when driving ‘em in our hot, dirt-eating youths.

But there is something about those 50, 60 and 70-year-old lovingly restored, rust-bucket beauties that still attract an eye, conjure a story and warm a heart.

The 77 was Uncle Honey’s tractor of choice for two practical reasons. First, my father didn’t trust his inattentive, iron-bending uncle with anything associated with the word “big,” alas, no 88 for him. More importantly, the 77 had hydraulics, a requirement to raise our Oliver mower’s 7-foot sickle bar when mowing alfalfa, straw or my mother’s perpetually replanted peach trees.

And yes, despite Honey’s honestly earned reputation for destroying farm equipment — he did, after all, plow out two telephone poles — Dad had him mow because those four or five cuttings of 100 acres of alfalfa each year intentionally kept him away from the combine, silage wagons, humans, chain saws, cows, fence posts and telephone poles.

Well, mostly.

tractor seat. Yes, it was plasticcovered and, yes, it was a hotplate in the summer and an ice block in the winter. Even at that, the seat wasn’t as hot, cold or hard as the backside-slapping steel seats on the old Oliver fleet that encouraged more standing than sitting while operating.

Honey inherited the stiff, roaring 1850 for both plowing and silage chopping. To his great displeasure, the sickle mower went with the 77.

Dad replaced both with a selfpropelled, hydrostatic Owatonna haybine and, without any discussion, replaced Honey with me as its only operator.

When White Farm Equipment began to dominate Oliver in the late 1960s, my father’s loyalty to the brand ebbed. He was no fan of Case — a 930 Comfort King came and went pretty quickly — and never considered John Deere because he never found a Deere dealer he could bargain with.

100 years ago this week. With the greatest cattle show in its history, and six of the eight Granges in Mahoning County making truly remarkable exhibits, the 77th annual Mahoning County Fair has broken practically all attendance and exhibition records.

75 years ago this week. A volunteer fireman was injured when fire destroyed a large barn at the Canton Hog Ranch on Mapleton Road with an estimated property loss of $50,000. M.L. Quigley, manager of the company, said only a slight percentage of the loss was covered by insurance.

50 years ago this week. Scorching weather slowed down the visitors to the Canfield Fair in 1973, but perhaps it is just as well because facilities were taxed to the limit. The hottest week in 20 years resulted in exceptional use of water, electricity and ice.

25 years ago this week. It was the Seth Sharp show at this year’s Columbiana County Fair junior market livestock competitions. The 14-yearold from Beloit won the grand champion carcass hog honors before the fair started and then kept the ball rolling by showing the grand champion market hog and the grand champion market steer.

In fact, unlike many other ag journalists, I have only four toy tractors in my office: two that are manufacturer gifts from tractor introductions (the best of which, admittedly, is a very sweet, very big Versatile 1150 from 1981) and two that are unblemished, green-andyellow Oliver 77s. One is a “Super” 77, the other a plain “Row Crop” 77.

While we were Oliver people on the southern Illinois dairy farm of my youth, we never owned a Super

CORRECTIONS

When the farm moved from 36-inch rows to 30-inch, out went the 66, 77 and 88, and in came a new wave of Oliver — and not yet White branded — tractors: a gas 1650, a diesel 1755 and a rugged, log wagon 1850. The 1650 had a narrow front and the 1755 and 1850 were our first wide fronts.

Of the three, my two older brothers and I often argued over who would get the 1650 for their day’s work. Its purring engine, power steering and narrow front made it the perfect tractor for baling hay, planting corn, chopping stalks, pulling silage wagons, backing a hay wagon into the barn … you name it.

And its best feature was its most important: our farm’s first foam

He did, however, own a highhours 4020 at the end of his farming career because, I suspect, its price fit his wallet more than the poorly maintained tractor fit his needs.

His final, go-to “big” tractor was a mid-1970s Ford 9600. It was the only tractor he ever owned with a cab and he all but wore it out over the following decades. It sold for pennies at his retirement auction and holds no special spot in my heart.

Mostly because that space was taken long ago by an Oliver 77.

Reader: Milk’s benefits mispresented

Editor:

Consumer Reports is a national publication best known for helping consumers make informed choices for just about everything in the marketplace. In a recent article on making informed choices when purchasing milk, they made a shocking statement that should have made headlines but they included it in a rather bashful way at the end of the article. Simply calling them newer studies, they cited current research that indicates that the fats in milk are not associated with weight gain, type 2 diabetes or heart disease!

Now those of us who grew up on

dairy farms and drank cows’ milk of whatever breed of cattle were part of our daily lives have been trying to get the truth out for our lifetimes. Milk and its products are healthful. You remember: strong bones and teeth.

A few decades back when researchers were attempting to associate anything with one’s health, some unscrupulous researcher took advantage of a part of the English language called a homonym. A homonym is when two words are spelled or pronounced alike but have different meanings. These less-than-honest researchers started making unsubstantiated claims that consuming fats would make you fat.

It sounded reasonable and is accepted today as factual.

It just ain’t so.

Nina Teicholz in her 2014 book entitled “The Big Fat Surprise” concluded that we could eat butter, and drink whole milk as well as cheese for all of the same reasons mentioned in the Consumer Reports article. In short, dairy products should be an important part of our diets and we are fortunate to live in a time when milk, cheese and butter are plentiful.

Recalling smells of childhood

Judith Sutherland

If you’ve never experienced the strong association between taste and smell, I have just the thing to prove it to you. This experience will only surely connect, though, if you’ve ever been a farm kid who had to feed calves.

Recently, I decided to try what was promoted as a healthy drink to boost protein intake, giving a person more energy to burn through that never-ending chore list in a hurry.

After stirring up this powdered drink with enthusiasm, I took a big sip. I feel certain that my eyes rolled around in my head like a cartoon character, while my feet turned into rotors, propelling me to the sink to

wash it away with gloriously tasteless water.

The drink tasted exactly like the milk replacer I stirred up for the calves when I was a kid. Calf Lac, the cream-colored powder that came in a big bag, had a very distinctive aroma, and I guarantee you, this drink tasted just like Calf Lac smelled. No, thank you.

Burcucumber can be a problem for corn

By Dwight Lingenfelter

Despite the variable weather patterns around the state, burcucumber can still be a problem in corn. Burcucumber can germinate and emerge late into the season, especially under moist conditions. And it is not until it gets above the crop canopy that it is often noticed.

Thus, we are starting to get more inquiries about how to control burcucumber that has canopied overthe-top of corn. Penn State research shows that ensiling green burcucumber seed is an effective technique for killing viable seed, but that ensiling does not affect mature seed.

Effects of an 8-week ensiling period on burcucumber seed revealed that if the burcucumber seeds were immature (green or cream-tan colored; see image below) only 2% remained viable, as compared to mature seed (dark brown seed coats), that were 87% viable. This suggests

that early harvesting of a crop as silage may prevent viable seed production in burcucumber-infested fields.

Silage harvest also prevents mature seed from reentering the field through the combine.

If burcucumber cannot be removed with corn silage harvest, there are no labeled and effective herbicide options that can be applied to tasseled corn. Products like glyphosate are not allowed until the grain is mature and many of the other herbicides like Peak, dicamba, Callisto, Liberty, and others stipulate that they must be applied prior to V8 corn stage or earlier. Impact may be the only one that could be applied now but it will only provide some suppression — 50-60% control if that.

There are common late-season corn herbicide options, but most of them can only be applied at maturity and right before harvest. Also, harvest-aid herbicides are generally not effective on burcucumber

and will not necessarily control the weed before grain harvest. In most cases, if the corn is harvested for grain, the mature seeds will simply end up back in the field (or in the grain) making the problem worse for future years. If necessary, Gramoxone/paraquat is probably the most effective pre-harvest herbicide in this situation.

Other late-season corn herbicide options are listed below, but not all of them are effective on burcucumber.

• Aim 2EC: May be applied 3 days before harvest at 2 fluid ounces/ acre. Use as a harvest aid to desiccate certain broadleaf weeds. Apply in 10 gal/A water. Include necessary adjuvants and make sure spray coverage is sufficient otherwise poor control will result.

• Basagran: Use 1.5 to 2 pints/acre with appropriate adjuvants. No specific restrictions are provided on the label. Usually not effective on burcucumber.

• Defol 5L: Can be applied to desiccate problem weeds in early maturing corn. Apply 4.8 quarts/acre, 14 days before harvest in 10-20 gallons/

acre water and include appropriate adjuvants. Do not graze treated fields or feed fodder/forage until 14 days after application.

• Impact/Armezon: Use 1 fluid ounce/acre with appropriate adjuvants. Can be applied up to 45 days prior to harvest.

• Glyphosate: Up to 0.75 pounds ae/acre (32 fluid ounces of a 3 pound ae/gal formulation) to corn a week or more prior to harvest. Include necessary adjuvants to improve performance. Must be applied to grain when moisture is 35% or less and after maximum kernel fill.

• Gramoxone 3SL: Apply 0.8 to 1.3 pint/acre after black layer and at least 7 days before harvest. The higher rate can be used to desiccate mature broadleaves and grasses over 18 inches tall. Be sure to include a nonionic surfactant.

• 2,4-D LV4: Apply 1 to 2 pint/acre after the hard dough or dent stage. Use higher rates on larger weeds and those under stress. Do not forage or feed corn fodder for 7 days after application.

Keep in mind, in corn, this type

of application requires high clearance equipment or aerial application, so hopefully these fields are the exception and not the norm. Herbicide applications made during this late timeframe are used primarily to help desiccate green weed tissue to improve the harvesting process. Contact herbicides are usually better at this process; however, it can vary by weed species and usually will require at least a week or more to desiccate weeds.

Some of these herbicides are not that effective on large weeds or certain species. Harvest aids are not intended to (and usually do not) help speed up crop maturity. If applied too early they can interfere with the natural crop maturation process. Illegal herbicide residues can result if specific application timing and other label guidelines are not followed. See specific product label to determine correct rate, timing, weed species controlled, and other restrictions with this type of application.

Learn these easy strategies for backyard conservation in fall

By Lynn Vogel

Backyard conversation doesn’t end with the growing season. Every season provides opportunities to scout your property with the goal of improving your personal ecosystem regarding cleaner water, healthier soil and improved wildlife habitat.

For starters, don’t guess, test.

Soil testing performed in the early fall still allows ample time to add any recommended soil amendments so your lawn and garden will be ready to perform better next growing season. Penn State provides affordable testing for homeowners through its agricultural services lab.

Keep it covered by planting a cover crop. Keeping roots in the ground is one of the best ways to build healthy soil. Both living and non-living roots have a major role in nutrient cycling and soil fertility.

The rhizosphere (the soil surrounding the root) is the ‘sweet spot’ for plant/nutrient interactions. Soil microbes utilize the sugary exudates from living roots as well as the nutrients from the decaying roots of plants that have completed their life cycle. So dead or alive, roots improve soil health.

Don’t burn it, turn it. Unfortunately, many Ohioans are still in the practice of burning large piles of raked leaves each fall. Burning leaves falls under Ohio’s open burning regulations. The Ohio Revised Code 1503.18 prohibits most open burning in March, April, May, October and November between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. This code is under the authority of the Ohio Division of Forestry. The Ohio EPA also has authority over open burning. It is advisable to check with your local municipality to see if they have additional open burning restrictions or required permits. Note that even if you acquire a permit to lawfully burn your leaves at an approved time, it is still a terrible waste of a valuable natural resource.

Perhaps the fact that we refer to fallen leaves as ‘leaf litter’ makes us

prone to think of this natural resource as a waste product that needs to be burned or otherwise discarded. Nothing could be further from the truth. During the growing season, plants draw nutrients from the soil to produce leaves. When those same leaves fall back to the ground and decay, they return those nutrients back to the soil. Raking and removing leaves from a site breaks the nutrient cycle and will eventually reduce soil fertility.

Leaf litter is habitat. Many moth and butterfly caterpillars that feed on the leaves of trees and shrubs drop to the ground beneath their host plants to complete their life cycle by overwintering in the leaf litter. By simply allowing the leaves that fall within the dripline of a tree to remain under the tree, you can provide a soft landing for these important species.

When we get out our rakes and leaf blowers and remove this critical habitat, we reduce the number of spring-emerging moths and butterflies. Any disruption to the life cycle of these species will ultimately reduce the number of caterpillars that will be available for birds to rear their young the following spring and summer.

If you have too many leaves to mow or leave beneath trees, turn that excess into gold. Due to the improved soil health and weed suppression benefits, gardeners often refer to composted leaves as brown gold. Fall is an excellent time to start a compost pile and begin making your own brown gold — and it doesn’t have to be anything fancy. A simple pile of leaves that you turn every couple of weeks can become gardener’s gold in six months or sooner.

Mow ‘em; don’t blow ‘em. Mowing leaves (especially with mulching blades) that are on your lawn will reduce their size and they will eventually settle onto the soil around your grass. The decaying leaf particles will provide nutrients back to the soil, reducing the amount of lawn fertilizer you may need. Once settled, the leaf fragments will also help shade out weed seeds and reduce weed germi-

nation in your lawn.

If you follow a routine lawn treatment schedule, it is worth noting that research indicates that fall is the best time to fertilize your lawn. Consider eliminating or reducing chemical applications except for this optimal fall timing. Reducing chemical inputs is a critical strategy for clean water.

Branching out and learning more. Fall is also a great time to plant trees, shrubs and herbaceous perennials. Garden centers typically offer some of their best discounts in the fall. Look for native plants. You do not have to compromise on beauty, either, because Ohio has many beautiful native species. By planting native, you can feel confident that you are helping to preserve our rich biodiversity.

With the season of senescence upon us and yard chores waning, you can use this time to re-evaluate your landscape. Take advantage of the slower pace to read a book, listen to a podcast or participate in virtual or in-person learning opportunities relating to conservation of our natural resources. Contact your local soil and water conservation district and county extension office to find out about the programs they are offering.

Recalling smells of childhood

(Continued from Page A5)

I remember that each Calf Lac bag came with a colored rubbery plastic cup to use for measuring. When each bag was emptied, we took the cup to the house. Those became our Kool-Aid sipping cups, and we had them in various colors, a bonus for a houseful of kids.

There were times, I promise you, I could still smell that distinctive aroma of Calf Lac while sipping from one of those cups. The drink menu for us when I was a kid was either milk, water or the brightly colored, highlysugared, fake fruit juice that every kid lived on throughout the 1960s and 70s.

And so, I remember feeling mighty inventive when I opted to use an empty glass pop bottle, slowly pouring my Kool-Aid into it. Magically, it tasted unbelievably great. Though my sisters tried to talk sense into me, I suddenly saw myself as a cool kid, and the entire world would soon be following my lead. No more Calf Lac cups for me!

Because Kool-Aid was so cheap it was practically free, no one squashed my spirited drinking. As long as I didn’t make a mess, I could stir up another pitcher of the stuff.

I can put myself right back in that kitchen, pulling open the small drawer and flipping through those little cardsized packets. Red Kool-Aid was the best. Whether it was strawberry, cherry or black cherry it didn’t matter, they all tasted red.

What I hadn’t bargained for is that my stomach was used to one Calf Lac cup-sized serving. I drank from that pop bottle like a drunken sailor suddenly stuck in a dry, hot desert.

That red Kool-Aid demanded a sudden repeat performance, without the bottle, right off the side porch railing. No one felt a bit sorry for me.

I’m old now, and a little wiser. I’ve sworn off Kool-Aid and any old thing that smells even remotely like Calf Lac for all time. Who’s with me?

Workshop on sheep nutrition set for Sept. 29

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Interested in learning how to balance rations to best meet nutritional requirements for sheep or goats? Two upcoming Penn State Extension workshops are aimed at teaching producers how to formulate rations using computer software.

There will be two “Advanced Sheep and Goat Nutrition Schools” held this fall, one in western Pennsylvania from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sept. 29 at the Penn State Extension office in Westmoreland County, 214 Greensburg-Donohoe Station Road, Greensburg.

This school is designed for intermediate and experienced producers interested in learning how to formulate rations that meet the nutritional requirements of animals at different ages and stages of production. Instructors will cover topics such as basic principles of ration balancing and nutrient requirements, understanding a forage analysis report, configuring a grain mix to supplement forages and balancing rations using computer programs, including an Excel-based ration evaluator program and an online sheep ration program.

The $10 registration fee covers handout materials, refreshments and lunch. Participants must register by Sept. 25 for the Greensburg location. More information is available on the Penn State Extension website at extension.psu.edu/advanced-sheepand-goat-nutrition-school or by calling 877-345-0691.

Report sparks debate over whether natural gas production in region has hit its peak

Continued from Page A1

One of the reasons why is location, according to Sean O’Leary, the author of the report. Both basins are on the border of the Gulf of Mexico and have easy access to export terminals. The Appalachian region has to transport natural gas via pipelines to export terminals on either the East Coast or elsewhere.

Another reason natural gas production is expected to drop is the Russia-Ukraine war, which spurred countries in Europe and elsewhere to move from natural gas toward renewable energy. Natural gas power plants in the U.S. are also being retired as quickly as they are being built, which will equal minimal domestic growth moving forward.

Even when natural gas production was rising, the report says employment, income and population numbers in the region declined.

Between the years of 2008 to 2019, gross domestic product, or GDP, in the 22 most active gas-producing counties in Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, grew three times more than the GDP of the United States and more than four times the rate of Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia as a whole.

However, employment, income and population did not see the same success as GDP.

According to the report, federal data shows that the number of fulltime jobs between 2008 to 2019 in these counties dropped 2.1% — worse than the combined states of Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, which saw a job increase of 3.8%. The population also fell by 4.6%, while the combined population in the three states climbed 2.1%.

The report attributed this massive

growth in GDP, but lack of growth in employment, income and population to the fact that “natural gas extraction is one of the least labor-intensive activities in the U.S. economy with less than 10 cents of every dollar earned allocated to labor.”

Industry response. Chadsey, of OOGA, says to disregard federal data and look at the quarterly state production data operators turn in to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Oil and Gas, which he says shows “production continues to go up, quarter over quarter, year over year.”

A missive from Energy In Depth, an online publication run by the Independent Petroleum Association of America, points to a 2023 Cleveland State University and JobsOhio study that shows oil and gas has invested more than $100 billion into Ohio’s economy, “acting as an essential economic lifeblood to the Buckeye State.”

Mandi Risko, with Energy In Depth, said ORVI ignored critical factors supporting growth, like millions of dollars in impact fees paid by operators in Pennsylvania and ad valorem, or property taxes, paid in Ohio. She added that the report’s “cherry-picked data is hardly reflective of what the Appalachian communities have experienced” and “leaves out the what the poverty and economic rates would be without oil and gas.”

Jobs numbers. Industry sources referred to an Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services Ohio Shale April 2020 report. Data from ODJFS shows that in Ohio, between the years of 2011 and 2019, employment grew in all areas except the Northwest region, where there was little drilling activity. The West,

Northeast and Southeast all saw a significant increase in shale-related jobs.

The natural gas industry was not spared impacts by the COVID-19 pandemic. It too saw a drop in employment rates. In March 2020, Ohio had an unemployment rate of 5.5%, higher than the U.S. average of 4.4%.

Nevertheless, Ohio gas-producing counties experienced worse unemployment rates than the U.S. during this time, despite natural gas production soaring, the ORVI report said.

“It can be argued that the Appalachian natural gas boom did to a degree help protect job growth in the Frackalachian counties from the worst ravages of the Great Recession. But it can be equally persuasively argued that the gas industry helped drive job loss in the years prior to and during the COVID recession,” O’Leary said.

According to the latest available data from the American Petroleum Institute, gathered in 2021, Pennsylvania employed 423,700 people in the natural gas industry, Ohio employed 351,530 and West Virginia employed 73,120.

Regardless of how the numbers are interpreted and by whom, Chadsey said members of the Ohio Oil and Gas Association and others in the industry “call St. Clairsville and Cambridge and Salem home.”

“So we have every incentive to make sure that we’re doing operations responsibly. This is home for us and that’s often forgotten in this conversation,” he said.

Supreme Court decision leads to weakened water regulations

(Continued from Page A3)

“We’re pleased the vague and confusing ‘significant nexus’ test has been eliminated as the Supreme Court dictated. But EPA has ignored other clear concerns raised by the Justices, 26 states, and farmers across the country about the rule’s failure to respect private property rights and the Clean Water Act,” Duvall said.

Michael Connor, assistant Army secretary for civil works, said that with the publication of the revised rule, the Army Corps will resume issuing jurisdictional decisions that were paused after the Sackett decision. “Moving forward, the Corps will continue to protect and restore the nation’s waters in support of jobs and healthy communities,’’ he said in a statement.

In December, the Biden administration finalized its regulations basing them on definitions in place prior to 2015 that federal officials hoped were durable enough to survive a court challenge. They protected many small streams, wetlands and other waters and repealed a Trumpera rule that environmentalists said left far too many of those waterways unregulated.

In recent years, depending on the political party in the White House, the power of the Clean Water Act has varied sharply. The Obama administration sought to enlarge federal power to protect waterways. The Trump administration rolled them back as part of a broader curtailment of environmental regulations.

It’s been a political issue, too. Earlier this year, Congress approved a resolution overturning the Biden administration’s water protections. Republicans argued the White House had imposed rules that were a burden to businesses and agriculture and the Senate voted in favor 53-43, persuading four Democrats and Independent Sen. Krysten Sinema of Arizona to side with Republicans and vote in favor. Biden vetoed the resolution. (©2023 Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Rustic Ridge to get gas detectors

PLUM, Pa. — Gov. Josh Shapiro and Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection Secretary Rich Negrin announced Aug. 25 they secured combustible gas detectors for the Rustic Ridge neighborhood in Plum Borough following an explosion that took the lives of six residents and damaged multiple homes. The detectors will be provided at no cost to residents. The origin of and cause of the incident in Plum remains undetermined and is under investigation.

Serving Butler, Lawrence, and Mercer Counties tccleanways@comcast.net

Olympus Energy, a Pennsylvaniabased company, donated 250 detectors to the Rustic Ridge homeowners association. DEP personnel are partnering with the homeowners association to distribute the detectors to residents of Rustic Ridge. DEP’s team of experts will provide residents with guidance for identifying the best location in their homes to install the detectors.

DEP inspectors began conducting a stray gas investigation at the incident Aug. 14 to look for sources of combustible gas near the site of the explosion and inspecting nearby natural gas-related facilities and infrastructure under DEP’s jurisdiction.

Potential for poisoning during fall grazing should be addressed

Jordan Penrose

All About Grazing

With fall fast approaching, it may be time to assess potential problems that could arise when livestock are grazing, such as trees and grasses. A good practice of walking or driving through your pastures will help you know what is growing in or around them.

Buckeye poisoning. A potential problem that may be overlooked in the fall is buckeye poisoning, which results from the nuts that fall from buckeye trees. According to the Ohio Department of Natural Recourses, buckeye trees prefer moist, welldrained soils.

Back in 2017, we dealt with buckeye poisoning on the family farm with cattle. The cows and calves that were poisoned had no balance like they were drunk and seemed weak on the legs, especially the back ones. When lying down, they went on their side with their head on the ground pulled back and legs straight out with some muscle twitching.

According to “A Guide to Plant Poisoning of Animals in North America (2001),” the principal toxins are the glycosides aesculin and fraxin, and possibly a narcotic alkaloid. Animals develop signs of poisoning 16 hours after consuming toxic quantities.

As little as 0.5% body weight of the animal can produce severe poisoning. Laxatives may be given to remove the ingested plant parts as fast as possible. If the animal is down for

an extended period, keeping the cow hydrated is important.

Cyanide poisoning. Another problem to watch out for this fall is cyanide poisoning, also known as prussic acid poisoning. Cyanide poisoning can be caused by several different plants, the main ones being black cherry trees, johnsongrass and members of the sorghum family, including Sudangrass, sorghum-sudan hybrids, forage sorghum or grain sorghum.

Black cherry trees can cause cyanide poisoning from wilted cherry leaves and branches. It’s best to remove downed limbs and leaves from pastures to prevent incidental intake or keep animals off that paddock until the leaves have completely dried and become a dark chocolate brown color.

Johnsongrass is the most common problem grass in Ohio because it is a weed and grows along the road, in ditches and in fields. Most of the different sorghums we plant to graze are harvested for feed for our livestock in the wintertime or a combination of both.

When it comes to the johnsongrass and the different sorghums, the things to watch for are frost and the regrowth of sorghums after a harvest. If there is a frost and you want to graze one or more of these grasses, do not graze after a killing frost until plants are dry, which usually takes five to seven days. After a non-killing frost, do not allow animals to graze for two weeks because the plants usually contain high concentrations of cyanide.

“A Guide to Plant Poisoning of Animals in North America (2001),” notes that johnsongrass and sudan grasses are the most common cause of cyanide poisoning in cattle and sheep and are especially toxic when

growing rapidly. Fertilization with nitrogen increases the potential for cyanide toxicity. Regrowth of sorghums after cutting has a high potential for poisoning and there is an old saying that sorghum should not be grazed until they are above knee height.

Cyanide-free hybrids of Sudan grasses are available as forage crops for animal consumption. All species of johnsongrass and sorghum may also accumulate toxic levels of nitrate and are a common source of nitrate poisoning in cattle.

According to the plant poisoning guide, the recommended treatment for cyanide poisoning is the intravenous administration of a mixture of 1 milliliter of 20% sodium nitrite and 3 milliliters of 20% sodium thiosulfate per 100 pounds of body weight. The dose can be repeated in a few minutes if no response is seen.

Keep in mind that all poisons can be dose-dependent, so even if there is less poison in the leaves or nuts, eating enough of them can have negative consequences.

If you would like more information on poisoning and toxicities that can affect your livestock, contact your county extension educator at extension.osu.edu/lao.

Make sure you have a veterinaryclient-patient relationship in place with your vet and contact your vet immediately if you suspect poisoning in your herd.

Sign up period for ‘Adopt a Cow’ program closes Sept. 15

HARRISBURG, Pa. — The interactive “Adopt a Cow” program is open for enrollment for the 2023-24 school year, with the goal of giving students an inside look at a U.S. dairy farm.

The free program is a year-long, immersive learning opportunity where students can participate in hands-on, educational activities featuring the calves on the farm and the dairy farmers who manage the operation. The sign-up period closes on Sept. 15.

The way it works is, first, each classroom that enrolls in the Adopt a Cow program is paired with a calf from a dairy farm. Then, throughout the school year, teachers and students receive photos, video updates and activity sheets that allow them to watch their calf grow. Teachers who enroll in the Adopt a Cow program receive an introductory update in the fall with details about their calf, and classrooms receive bi-monthly updates, including suggestions from the Discover Dairy curriculum that teachers can choose to incorporate in their virtual or in-person lesson plans.

The program helps teachers create a wide range of connections with their curriculum and community at large, teaching students the importance of dairy nutrition, community, environmentalism and sustainability, as well as helping them with language and writing skills.

Last year, more than 40,000 elementary and middle school classrooms, homeschool families, library groups and other organizations participated in the “Adopt a Cow” program. Classrooms from all 50 states participated in the program along with a total of 50 other countries. Schools from both rural and urban areas can enroll, giving the opportunity to students of all ages and demographics to learn about dairy farming.

To enroll in the program, visit www.discoverdairy.com/adopt or contact the Dairy Excellence Foundation at 717-346-0849 for more information about how to share this program with your community.

Summer in South Dakota has been gloriously green

Eliza Blue Little Pasture on

Across our north pasture, and on into our neighbors’ bordering pastures, abandoned homesteads dot the landscape at regular intervals. Some feature old houses and windmills that are still standing despite years of neglect. Others are nothing more than brick foundations that rise out of the grass like miniature fortresses. Often a rusted piece of antique farm equipment is nestled nearby, waiting patiently for its farmer to reclaim it, or bedsteads with springs still intact, the mattress long since rotted away; all evidence of plans laid and left unfulfilled. A testament to the way farming and ranching has changed, but also to the difficulties of working the land in this place.

Our county was established in 1908, during the second wave of immigration to the Dakotas. By 1909, the area was flooded with hopeful pioneers. They had harnessed their futures to land “West of 20,” where the average annual precipitation amounts

to less than twenty inches, or near desert conditions. That first year, however, homesteaders found themselves living in a verdant paradise. Rain was abundant, and consequently, so were crops. At the time it was believed rain would “follow the plow.” For that first year, it appeared to be true.

The year 1910 dealt a blow to this fantasy. Whereas the first year had been unusually wet, many homesteaders lost their investments of time and money when, during the second year, the area failed to receive even its average of fourteen inches of annual precipitation. They learned, as I have, that “average” doesn’t mean much in these parts.

And it didn’t end there. After the first year of drought, according to Paula Nelson in her book, After the West was Won, “the spring of 1911... arrived early and was unusually warm

and much too dry. It was the beginning of a growing season that would exceed all others for drought, heat and wind.” Scores of families had no choice but to abandon their homesteads. They had no financial wiggle room to stick it out, having already mortgaged their land for what it was worth. From a population of 11,348 in the 1910 federal census, our county was listed as 7,641 people in the state census conducted just five years later.

My residence on the ranch has mirrored those original homesteaders’ experiences exactly. My first summer here boasted regular intervals of gentle rain, green grasses, waist-high clover and cool breezes scented with prairie roses. In the fall, cattle prices also happened to be at an all-time high, so we sold our calves with a healthy profit margin and didn’t have to buy winter hay. Everyone told me this wasn’t normal, but

like those early settlers, I couldn’t quite believe it. Abundance was all I’d ever known in my adopted homeland. The years since have taught me otherwise, and I’ve learned firsthand if you crave predictability, western South Dakota is not the place to settle. Every time I think I’ve got our climate figured out, the weather gods send a season of weather so unexpected, that I have to admit I’ve got no idea what to plan for next.

Case in point: We had several years of drought, then last year a reprieve with a series of sudden rain storms in the spring that meant we made it through a relatively dry summer with plenty of grass. Meanwhile, this year summer has been gloriously–green grass from start to finish as a result of gentle, cooling rains whenever we needed them. Other than the resulting abundance of

mosquitoes, it was the perfect summer weather-wise. It’s even gotten hot enough here at the end to make us look forward to fall. And the cattle market is high again, at least for now.

Thriving in western South Dakota often looks more like just surviving, but this year, we can relax and rejoice a little as rain is once again predicted to fall right when we need it. What will come next? Who knows; however, we can rest assured our “normal” will always be anything but.

Safety. People’s safety is top priority during harvest season. Send everyone home each day healthy and safe. Silage harvest involves multiple pieces of equipment and drivers moving trucks, tractors and choppers in various patterns. Coordinated traffic patterns and highly visible safety vests for all workers should be mandatory. Keep small children and uninvited farm guests away from busy farm driveways.

Silage fermentation gases are dangerous. Use all precautions after filling upright silos to prevent exposure to silo gases. Get proper rest, keep hydrated with adequate water and take regular breaks to avoid operator fatigue.

cessed. A chop length of 3/4 to 1 inch for kernel-processed silage is correct. Non-kernel processed corn silage should be chopped to 3/8 to 1/2 inch particle length.

It is recommended to have silage kernel processed as research has shown a benefit of 4 pounds of additional milk per cow from kernel-processed silage. The kernel roller gap set to 1/8 inch is correct. Monitor the chop length and kernel processing throughout the bunker or silo-filling process. Assign the responsibility to run a Penn State shaker box and kernel processing evaluation on incoming loads of silage throughout the time during silo chopping.

A professional football coach knows that the work is done in the weight room and practice field before the opening kickoff on the first game day. In football, there are several chances to make course corrections in-season if things are turning out as planned. Unlike football, however, there is only one chance to get corn silage harvest done correctly and safely.

Harvest will begin soon, and proper preparation is critical to keep all people safe and silage stored properly.

Corn silage quality, proper fermentation and assigning a corn silage price is a top five factor in profit for dairy farms.

Inspect and update all safety features on silage tractors, trucks and choppers. Clean and replace worn-out lights, backup beepers and slow-moving vehicle emblems. The silage chopper should have both an ABC dry chemical and a water cannon foaming agent extinguisher on board.

Silage equipment dust, debris and fodder should be blown off daily to keep equipment free of any excessive dust or plant material, potentially increasing the risk of fire. The silagesafety.org website has resources for safety training as well as equipment operation and maintenance.

Chop length. Corn silage chop length should be adjusted based on whether the silage is kernel pro-

Silage variety and planting date can influence kernel size, therefore affecting the processing score. Checking processing scores in each field will improve your processing consistency.

Summary. Prepare your silage team now for the fall silage Super Bowl game as you only have one time to get it right. Prepare the equipment, set and monitor the correct chop length and kernel rolls, keep people’s safety first, review equipment safety and update as needed.

and feed out are added to determine the final as-fed cost fed into the ration.

The OSU Extension 2022 custom rate survey rates for chopping, hauling and packing range from $7 to $15/ ton. Industry costs for inoculation range from $0.50 to $1.50/ton, storage shrink at $4 to $8/ton, and feedout cost of $0.60 to $2.00/ton. Total corn silage cost is $59/ton (range $50 to $68/ton).

Answers from Dairy Excel

Corn silage is the most economical forage ingredient in dairy cattle diets. Corn silage typically constitutes from 35% to 60% of the total ration and is 25% to 40% of the total lactating cow feed cost.

There are three ways to price corn silage: 1) Actual production expense (fixed land cost and variable inputs), 2) alternative ingredient market value or 3) an agreedupon cost from a neighbor for standing corn silage.

Actual production cost. The actual production expense provides a method to account for the variable costs (seed, fertilizer, chemicals, machinery, labor, insurance, etc.) and fixed costs (land, taxes, etc.) associated w ith the effort to plant, grow, harvest and feed corn silage.

The Ohio State Extension 2022 corn silage budget calculator values corn silage variable costs at $570/acre and fixed land costs at $390/acre for a total per acre cost of $960/acre to grow and harvest corn silage.

A corn silage yield of $23 ton/ acre calc ulates to a value of nearly $42/ton standing in the field, with a range of $37 to $45/ton varying by tonnage harvested. The costs associated with silage harvest, hauling, packing, inoculation, storage loss

Alternative ingredient value. Alternative ingredient market value calculates an economic value on corn silage based upon market costs of ground corn grain, alfalfa hay (silage), soyhulls, corn gluten feed and soymeal.

Ohio State Buckeye Dairy News publishes corn silage alternative market prices.

Corn silage value per ton was calculated at $73, $92, $100 and $85/ ton in the years 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023, respectively. Corn grain ($/bushel) and 48% soymeal price ($/ton ) in those same years was $3.70/$300, $6.00/$376, $6.45/$470 and $6.60/$435, respectively.

Pricing standing. Purchasing standing corn for silage must have an agreeable price for both the buyer (dairy farmer) and the seller (crop farmer)

Step one is to determine the yield of corn grain in bushels per acre of the standing corn. Determine an agreeable grain price from loc al cash, forward contract or delayed pricing. Add the value of the silage fodder that is removed and deduct a ha rvest charge the seller will not incur.

Stan ding corn grain yield can be estimated by one of several ways: 1) leav e multiple test blocks in each field that can be harvested as dry corn for yield, 2) use a grain yield estimate calculated by crop insurance or 3) harvest the standing corn as silage and determine bushels of corn from calculation.

Adjust total silage tons harvest

ed

basis.

Bushels of corn grain in each ton are determined by using the equivalent factor of 0.15 tons of corn silage harvested equals one bushel of corn grain.

A general rule of thumb is that each ton of corn silage contains 7 bushels of dry-shelled corn. The silage fodder value of the corn silage can be valued as grass hay equivalent. Corn silage is roughly 50% fodder on a dry matter base.

Every ton of harvested corn silage would remove about 400 pounds of fodder on a dry hay equivalent basis (15% moisture). Thus, 400 pounds of grass hay at $160/ton market price would equate to $32/ton value of fodder for corn silage removed.

Remove the dry grain harvest cost for the seller since the grain producer will not be harvesting the crop as dry corn. OSU Ohio custom rates survey has a value of $10.50/ ton to harvest, haul and fill a corn silage bunker.

Example. Standing corn that yields $25 ton/acre of corn silage (35% DM). The 0.15 factor equates to $167 bushel/acre of corn grain. This factor may be low in highyielding grain corn.

A corn price of $6/bushel generates $1002/acre for grain yield. $1002 divided by 25 tons of corn silage equals $40/ton of corn silage. Add $32/ton value for the fodder and subtract the $10.50/ton for the harvest charge. The final price of corn silage per ton is $40 + $32$10.50 = $61.50/ton.

Summary. Corn silage is a critical and key part of the production and economic return for your dairy farm.

It is important to communicate with silage contractors and neighbors on establishing the corn silage price. Have a safe, abundant and blessed silage season.

Global food security is at a crossroads

By Aniruddha Ghosal and Evelyne Musambi

Associated Press

Francis Ndege isn’t sure if his customers in Africa’s largest slum can afford to keep buying rice from him.

Prices for rice grown in Kenya soared a while ago because of higher fertilizer prices and a yearslong drought in the Horn of Africa that has reduced production. Cheap rice imported from India had filled the gap, feeding many of the hundreds of thousands of residents in Nairobi’s Kibera slum who survive on less than $2 a day.

But that is changing. The price of a 25-kilogram (55-pound) bag of rice has risen by a fifth since June. Wholesalers are yet to receive new stocks since India, the world’s largest exporter of rice by far, said last month that it would ban some rice shipments.

It’s an effort by the world’s most populous nation to control domestic prices ahead of a key election year — but it’s left a yawning gap of around 9.5 million metric tons (10.4 tons) of rice that people around the world need, roughly a fifth of global exports.

“I’m really hoping the imports keep coming,” said Ndege, 51, who’s sold rice for 30 years.

Short supply. He isn’t the only one. Global food security is already under threat since Russia halted an agreement allowing Ukraine to export wheat and the El Nino weather phenomenon hampers rice production.

Now, rice prices are soaring — Vietnam’s rice export prices, for instance, have reached a 15-year high — putting the most vulnerable people in some of the poorest nations at risk.

The world is at an “inflection point,” said Beau Damen, a natural resources officer with the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization based in Bangkok.

Even before India’s restrictions, countries already were frantically buying rice in anticipation of scarcity later when the El Nino hit, creating a supply crunch and spiking prices.

What could make the situation worse is if India’s ban on non-basmati rice creates adomino effect, with other countries following suit. Al-

ready, the United Arab Emirates has suspended rice exports to maintain its domestic stocks. Another threat is if extreme weather damages rice crops in other countries.

An El Nino is a natural, temporary and occasional warming of part of the Pacific Ocean that shifts global weather patterns, and climate change is making them stronger. Scientists expect the one underway to expand to supersized levels, and, in the past, they have resulted in extreme weather ranging from drought to flooding.

Struggling. The impact would be felt worldwide. Rice consumption in Africa has been growing steadily, and most countries are heavily dependent on imports. While nations with growing populations like Senegal have been trying to grow more of their own rice — many are struggling.

Amadou Khan, a 52-year-old unemployed father of five in Dakar, says his children eat rice with every meal except breakfast, which they often have to skip when he’s out of work.

“I am just getting by — sometimes, I’ve trouble taking care of my kids,” he said.

Imported rice — 70% of which comes from India — has become prohibitively expensive in Senegal, so he’s eating homegrown rice that costs two-thirds as much.

Senegal will turn to other trading partners like Thailand or Cambodia for imports, though the West African country is not “far from being selfsufficient” on rice, with over half of its demand grown locally, Agriculture Ministry spokesperson Mamadou Aïcha Ndiaye said.

Asian countries, where 90% of the world’s rice is grown and eaten, are struggling with production. The Philippines was carefully managing water in anticipation of less rain amid the El Nino when Typhoon Doksuri battered its northern riceproducing region, damaging $32 million worth of rice crops — an estimated 22% of its annual production.

The archipelago nation is the second-largest importer of rice after China, and President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has underscored the need to ensure adequate buffers.

India’s rice restrictions also were motivated by erratic weather: An un-

even monsoon along with a looming El Nino meant that the partial ban was needed to stop food prices from rising, Indian food policy expert Devinder Sharma said.

The restrictions will take offline nearly half the country’s usual rice exports this year, said Ashok Gulati of the Indian Council for Research on International Economic Relation. Repeated restrictions make India an unreliable exporter, he added.

“That’s not good for the export business because it takes years to develop these markets,” Gulati said.

Vietnam, another major rice exporter, is hoping to capitalize. With rice export prices at a 15-year high and expectations that annual production to be marginally higher than last year, the Southeast Asian nation is trying to keep domestic prices stable while boosting exports.

The Agriculture Ministry says it’s working to increase how much land in the Mekong Delta is dedicated to growing rice by around 500 square kilometers — an area larger than 90,000 football fields.

Already the Philippines is in talks with Vietnam to try to get the grain at lower prices, while Vietnam also looks to target the United Kingdom, which receives much of its rice from India. Uncertainty. But exporters like Charoen Laothamatas in neighboring Thailand are wary. The Thai government expects to ship more rice than it did last year, with its exports in the first six months of the year 15% higher than the same period of 2022.

But the lack of clarity about what India will do next and concerns about the El Nino means Thai exporters are reluctant to take orders, mill operators are unwilling to sell and farmers have increased the prices of unmilled rice, said Laothamatas, president of the Thai Rice Exporters Association.

With prices fluctuating, exporters don’t know what prices to quote — because prices may spike again the next day.

“And no one wants to take the risk,” Laothamatas said. (©2023 Farm and Dairy. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed. AP contributed to this report.)

EPA, Hershey support dairy farmers

WASHINGTON BORO, Pa. —

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Hershey Company announced a joint commitment of $2 million to support local dairy farmers. The Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay, in collaboration with Land O’Lakes, Inc., will use funds to promote the adoption of practices that support local and regional environmental goals with dairy farm-

ers in Land O’Lakes’ eastern region milk shed.

Hershey and Land O’Lakes have been working together since 2021 on an initiative called “Sustainable Dairy PA.” The initiative takes a collaborative, industry-led and public sectorsupported approach to accelerate on-farm conservation efforts for local eastern region dairy farmers.

Both the EPA and Hershey will provide $1 million in funding, which will be used to support the Alliance and Land O’Lakes in implementing agricultural conservation practices on Land O’Lakes member dairy farms. The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation will administer the portion of the funds provided by EPA to the Alliance.

Share your burdens with God, and he will lighten your load

the animal’s shoulders, thus removing the stress on their necks. The yoke’s edges that rubbed their bodies were rounded and shaped to minimize discomfort.

Rev. Eldon Trubee

Like as a Fire

Matthew 11:25-30.

At that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. Even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight, all things are delivered unto me of my Father; and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

MY BURDEN IS LIGHT

My mother’s ancestors built animal-driven vehicles, everything from dray wagons and Conestoga wagons to buggies and carriages. I learned about the heavy yokes used by oxen to pull heavy delivery wagons and other such implements in a display of their handiwork.

The oxen yoke was designed to ease the burden placed upon those work animals.

The durable yoke used by a pair of oxen puts the pulling weight on

The oxen teams were trained to work together as they pulled, turned corners and stopped. A new ox was often paired with a more experienced partner for on-the-job training. Eventually, the pair would work well together sharing the burden. The owner had to have patience and while training the team, respect the animals’ nature.

Jesus had just completed a tour of towns that had strayed from the teachings of faith in God. The Master had finished berating the communities in which he had performed many of his miracles. He had warned Chorazin, Bethsaida and Capernaum to refrain from their sinful ways and return to the practices of their faith.

Now we find him conversing with God the Father. He thanks the Almighty for revealing to the unlearned what had been revealed and rejected, hidden from the so-called wise and learned folks.

The prayer being finished, he tells his listeners that, as God’s Son, he is revealing to them that God wants a close, faithful and loving relationship with them.

Jesus apparently knew something about beasts of burden, for he invites his followers to lay down the heavy loads of guilt, misplaced values and trust in false voices. These over-burdened people are invited to accept the peaceful rest and hope that Jesus offers.

The carpenter’s son, whose father probably made yokes for beasts for work animals, asks his audience to take up the yoke he offers. The burden will be light and will be shared.

Jesus then says, “Learn from me, for I am humble of spirit and

gentle.” He was telling them that he understood their worries and fears.

All of us have burdens of one kind or another. Pain, guilt, fear of what is and of the unknown. We have responsibility for ourselves and often for others. We may take on responsibilities that others refuse to accept.

We may burden ourselves with questions about our own self-worth and capabilities, as well as our own moral and ethical failures. We may even wonder if God has given up on us, if we even believe in God.

Jesus had all of these kinds of burdens in mind, as he looked into the eyes of those to whom he was speaking. He sensed the weights of those burdens and pains of pulling, pushing or backpacking them. He could see the aches and open wounds in their hearts. He even noticed the calloused lives of the weary and spiritually beaten-down listeners.

So Jesus suggested that they take up the double yoke to be shared with God, their loving Creator, as revealed to them by this Teacher. God did not expect them to bear more than they were able to handle. God would help them as a partner, like the paired oxen that shared a load. That help would appear in many different ways from many different sources, all guided by the Almighty.

That yoke is offered to you and me, shared with God as Jesus taught. Jesus said, “Remember that I am gentle and humble in spirit, and you will find rest. My yoke is easy and the burden we share is light.

Perhaps we should consider sharing our lives’ burdens with God. Pain is shared. Guilt and issues of self-worth are eased as God forgives and guides us.

God, be with us as we bear life’s burdens. May we share them with you as Jesus taught. Amen.

Meditation from the Upper Room

A CONSTANT REMINDER

Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

— Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)

When I was in seventh grade, I attended a confirmation class. During one of our lessons, we were challenged to find an image online that reminded us of God. The image I

Offer good ground and be receptive to others

the final day “Pickett’s Charge,” marking the Confederacy’s high point of the entire Civil War.

The perspective of the ground, open or concealed, at a higher or lower advantage, with the land itself aiding the Union army with a unique fish-hook defense, the “good ground” played a significant part.

Rev. Stephen Broache

(Editor’s note: Part 10 in a series in honor of the 160th anniversary of The Battle of Gettysburg, July 1-4, 1863.)

“A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seeds … fell on good soil and brought forth grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

— Jesus in Matthew 13. 3, 8-9

When I knew that I was headed for an interview with the Gettysburg church, I thought that I should watch the movie based on the events of that fateful June and July.

As I watched/absorbed/ marveled at the realistic depiction of the characters and carnage, a phrase kept recurring. The words used were repeated by generals leading both armies.

They asked, “Is this good ground?”, meaning where is the military advantage with higher ground to defend, places to bottle up the enemy, to resupply our lives and to move an army with cannons, animals, troops and ammunition? The answer on both sides of aggression was, “Yes, this is good ground.”

The question that they asked is charged with meaning for us also. The Genesis account of creation tells us that after each step of creating, “God saw that it was good.” It is a prayer that we would seek to continue as protective stewards of the goodness of the world, its creatures and our fellow human travelers.

A verse in Acts 10 from Luke also tells us that Jesus “went about doing good.” Its simplicity and power make this line one of my favorites.

But at the heart of my thoughts is the parable that leaps out when we hear the question, “Is this good ground?” That story from Jesus is the Parable of the Sower. It’s a story about how we receive the word (gospel, good news, scripture).

Some seeds fall on the path — the word is heard, but not understood, and so it is snatched away. Some seeds fall on rocky ground; it is received with joy but has no root or depth.

The growth ends with hard times and it “withers away.” Some seeds fall among thorns — “The delight in riches choke the word.” Finally, “other seeds” fall on good soil, “good ground,” and they bring forth folds, a many times amount of yield.

Jesus ends with his “Are you hearing me?” statement about if we have ears. The story has a clear application for us. My ears are working. I get it, don’t you?

found was an open field, colored warmly with sunlight. The picture reminded me of all the good times I had at summer church camp. Over the picture was today’s quoted scripture.

I decided to use the image as the background on my phone so I could see it throughout my day. It was a nice reminder to look for God in my everyday life. Even during hard times when I had doubts and wondered whether God was really there, the picture and verse continued to remind me that I am a child of God and

that my faith will always be a part of me. Now I make sure that at least one of my electronic devices has a lock screen that reminds me of God. In hard times, it is easy to forget that God has plans for each one of us. But we can find little ways to remind ourselves that God is near.

TODAY’S PRAYER

Dear God, thank you for drawing near to us. Help us to see your work in our lives. Amen.

— Abigail Colbow, Ohio

Goodness in the land

As the initial Union cavalry defended the Confederate approach, they held higher ground. As the Confederate attack from Oak Ridge swept down and through the town from a higher position, the Union troops fell back to the cemetery and Culp’s hills (holding them throughout the battle) to Little and Big Round Top, where the Confederate troops fought up the steep slope unsuccessfully with much loss of life; and to the final open/uphill assault from Seminary to Cemetery Ridges on

One of my early sermons on this passage was titled “How many folds in your seed?” — the 100, 60, 30 things. I think my point was “Get to work! Be the most fertile soil you can be, good for a drill sergeant, I suppose.

I think now that I am older, I drift more to the simplicity of going about doing good. Let the chips fall where they may. I have done my part.

And also, I strive to be the good receiving soil for others to lean on in times of hurt. To be like Jesus if I can, that would most definitely be “good ground.”

“Radiate boundless love towards the entire world — above, below, and across — unhindered, without ill will, without enmity. “

— Gautama Buddha

Pennsylvania free of bird flu

HARRISBURG — Gov. Josh Shapiro and the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture announced Aug. 30 that Pennsylvania was recognized by the World Animal Health Organization as free of highly pathogenic avian influenza.

This official status means that, for the first time since April 2022, Pennsylvania can return to normal international trade conditions. Trade had been restricted after the outbreak of the current HPAI string affected 31 commercial flocks, 36 backyard flocks and caused the loss of 4.6 million domestic birds.

The last confirmed infection of the bird flu in Pennsylvania was on March 17, in Lancaster County. In early August, specific restrictions

on farms where infections had been confirmed were finally lifted.

Pennsylvania remains under a general quarantine and the department will continue to test and monitor statewide. Despite no detections of the most infectious strain of the virus in recent months, detections of the virus in surrounding states indicate the threat is still present, especially as wild bird migration season approaches.

Currently, the Department is still reviewing applications for the fifth round of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Recovery Reimbursement Grants, which will reimburse those in the industry for the costs of enhanced biosecurity necessary to protect against the virus. It is recom-

mended poultry producers continue to implement strict biosecurity practices at all times, monitor bird health and report any unexplained illnesses and deaths in a flock to 717-772-2852.

In the KNOW...

The National Honey Board advocates for the sustainable production of honey. The story of honey is older than history itself. We know honey has been used for food, medicine and more by cultures all over the world. Honey bees visit millions of blossoms in their lifetimes, making pollination of plants possible and collecting nectar to bring back to the hive. Lucky for us, bees make more honey than their colony needs, and beekeepers remove the excess and bottle it — just like they’ve been doing since the beginning of time.

In a small mixing bowl, combine milk, honey, yeast and oil. Whisk together and set aside to allow yeast to work. Sift flour into a large mixing bowl or stand mixer with hook attachment, along with baking powder and salt. Slowly add in yeast mixture, mixing slowly until incorporated fully, and then knead with dough hook for 5-8 minutes, until dough becomes elastic. Adjust if dough becomes too sticky by adding more flour or adding a bit more milk if it becomes too dry. Tightly cover with a towel or plastic wrap and let rise for 1 hour or until dough has doubled in size. Meanwhile, mix together cream cheese, cheddar and mozzarella until incorporated. Set aside. Dust a cutting board or clean workspace with flour and turn dough out onto prepared surface. Portion dough into small balls. Roll each portion of dough to 1/4-inch thick and fill with a 1/2 teaspoon of the cheese mixture. Stretch the sides of the dough up around the cheese mixture and seal, pinching to close at the top. Repeat with remaining dough, holding under a damp towel so the dough doesn’t dry out. Generously grease a baking dish (or cast iron). Tightly roll each dough piece to completely seal in filling. Place seam side down in prepared dish, arranging snugly into a “honeycomb” pattern so each dough ball forms a hexagonal shape. Cover and let rise for another 30-40 minutes until dough has risen. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Remove the towel and gently press down dough with a spoon or clean index finger to further create a hexagon/honeycomb shape.

Reduce, reuse, recycle in that order

New recycling process could find markets for ‘junk’ plastic waste

By Jason Daley

Life Out Loud!

Bugged

I keep a very clean house. I’m not even going to go through the motions of pretending with the old “please excuse the mess” schtick over an obviously clean place.

I clean almost every day and make it a point to keep things very nice. It’s just who I am as a person. Also, now that all of my grandmothers are safely in heaven, I fear them marring their afterlife looking down in horror at my unswept crumbs.

Because of my basic ability to keep the house established, imagine my surprise when I woke up to find that we had been overtaken by little brown ants overnight. And I do mean overnight. One minute they weren’t there, and the very next, they were. Did they arrive by bus?

I don’t know if there was some sort of a coup, and the Asian lady beetles finally lost their foothold on our property, but I am here to tell you that the tiny, tiny, barely visible to the naked eye little brown ants have definitely come up in the world. In fact, they’ve come up as far as my kitchen counters. This trespass shall not stand.

Real. I am a realist. Practical. We live in an old house in the country. Historic structure plus farm fields mean a certain number of visitors seem inevitable. I have come to terms with the fact that I will never live in a hermetically sealed environment. I’m not sure I’d even want to. It sounds kind of unhealthy actually.

Nonetheless, I do accept — although I will never be okay with — the fact that we get the seasonal mouse. That’s how you know winter is coming: one dead mouse dispatched by the cat.

I imagine this is some sort of scout mouse who wasn’t as fast as he initially believed himself to be. Overconfidence will get ya every time. I don’t know if he got the short straw or willingly volunteered. I have no idea how vermin “Hunger Games” work.

I’m here to tell you that a mouse will venture into our home. Our cat will say, “no thank you, sir,” and he will venture right back out again — deceased.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. —

You’ve just finished a cup of coffee at your favorite cafe. Now you’re facing a trash bin, a recycling bin and a compost bin. What’s the most planetfriendly thing to do with your cup?

Many of us would opt for the recycling bin — but that’s often the wrong choice. In order to hold liquids, most paper coffee cups are made with a thin plastic lining, which makes separating these materials and recycling them difficult.

In fact, the most sustainable option isn’t available at the trash bin. It happens earlier before you’re handed a disposable cup in the first place.

In our research on waste behavior, sustainability, engineering design and decision-making, we examine what U.S. residents understand about the efficacy of different waste management strategies and which of those strategies they prefer. In two nationwide surveys in the U.S. that we conducted in October 2019 and March

2022, we found that people overlook waste reduction and reuse in favor of recycling. We call this tendency recycling bias and reduction neglect.

Our results show that a decadeslong effort to educate the U.S. public about recycling has succeeded in some ways but failed in others. These efforts have made recycling an option that consumers see as important — but to the detriment of more sustainable options. And it has not made people more effective recyclers.

A global waste crisis

Experts and advocates widely agree that humans are generating waste worldwide at levels that are unmanageable and unsustainable. Microplastics are polluting the Earth’s most remote regions and amassing in the bodies of humans and animals.

Producing and disposing of goods is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions and a public health threat, especially for vulnerable communities that receive large quantities of waste. New research suggests that even when plastic does get recycled, it produces staggering amounts of microplastic pollution.

Given the scope and urgency of

manage waste

this problem, in June 2023 the United Nations convened talks with government representatives from around the globe to begin drafting a legally binding pact aimed at stemming harmful plastic waste. Meanwhile, many U.S. cities and states are banning single-use plastic products or restricting their use.

Upstream and downstream solutions

Experts have long recommended tackling the waste problem by prioritizing source reduction strategies that prevent the creation of waste in the first place, rather than seeking to manage and mitigate its impact later. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and other prominent environmental organizations like the U.N. Environment Programme use a framework called the waste management hierarchy that ranks strategies from most to least environmentally preferred.

The familiar waste management hierarchy urges people to “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle,” in that order. Creating items that can be recycled is better from a sustainability perspective

MADISON, Wis. — Although many Americans dutifully deposit their plastic trash into the appropriate bins each week, many of those materials, including flexible films, multilayer materials and a lot of colored plastics, are not recyclable using conventional mechanical recycling methods. In the end, only about 9% of plastic in the United States is ever reused, often in low-value products. With a new technique, however, University of Wisconsin-Madison chemical engineers are turning low-value waste plastic into high-value products.

The new method, described in the Aug. 11 issue of the journal Science, could increase the economic incentives for plastic recycling and open a door to recycling new types of plastic. The researchers estimate their methods could also reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the conventional production of these industrial chemicals by roughly 60%.

The new technique relies on a couple of existing chemical processing techniques. The first is pyrolysis, in which plastics are heated to high temperatures in an oxygen-free environment. The result is pyrolysis oil, a liquid mix of various compounds. Pyrolysis oil contains large amounts of olefins — a class of simple hydrocarbons that are a central building block of today’s chemicals and polymers, including various types of polyesters, surfactants, alcohols and carboxylic acids.

In current energy-intensive processes like steam cracking, chemical manufacturers produce olefins by subjecting petroleum to extremely high heat and pressure. In this new process, the UW–Madison team recovers olefins from pyrolysis oil and uses them in a much less energyintensive chemical process called homogenous hydroformylation

Reduce, reuse, recycle − in that order

than burning them in an incinerator or burying them in a landfill, but it still consumes energy and resources. In contrast, reducing waste generation conserves natural resources and avoids other negative environmental impacts throughout a product’s life.

R’s out of place

In our surveys, participants completed a series of questions and tasks that elicited their views of different waste strategies. In response to open-ended questions about the most effective way to reduce landfill waste or solve environmental issues associated with waste, participants overwhelmingly cited recycling and other downstream strategies.

We also asked people to rank the four strategies of the Environmental Protection Agency’s waste management hierarchy from most to least environmentally preferred. In that order, they include source reduction and reuse; recycling and composting; energy recovery, such as burning trash to generate energy and treatment and disposal, typically in a landfill. More than three out of four participants (78%) ordered the strategies incorrectly.

When they were asked to rank the reduce/reuse/recycle options in the same way, participants fared somewhat better, but nearly half (46%) still misordered the popular phrase.

Finally, we asked participants to choose between just two options — waste prevention and recycling. This time, over 80% of participants understood that preventing waste was much better than recycling.

Recycling badly

While our participants defaulted to recycling as a waste management strategy, they did not execute it very well. This isn’t surprising, since the current U.S. recycling system puts the

onus on consumers to separate recyclable materials and keep contaminants out of the bin. There is a lot of variation in what can be recycled from community to community, and this standard can change frequently as new products are introduced and markets for recycled materials shift.

Our second study asked participants to sort common consumer goods into virtual recycling, compost and trash bins and then say how confident they were in their choices. Many people placed common recycling contaminants, including plastic bags (58%), disposable coffee cups (46%) and light bulbs (26%), erroneously — and often confidently — in the virtual recycling bins. For a few materials, such as cardboard and aluminum foil, the correct answer can vary depending on the capacities of local waste management systems.

This is known as wishcycling — placing non-recyclable items in the recycling stream in the hope or belief that they will be recycled. Wishcycling creates additional costs and problems for recyclers, who have to sort the materials, and sometimes results in otherwise recyclable materials being landfilled or incinerated instead.

Although our participants were strongly biased toward recycling, they weren’t confident that it would work.

Participants in our first survey were asked to estimate what fraction of plastic has been recycled since plastic production began. According to a widely cited estimate, the answer is just 9%. Our respondents thought that 25% of plastic had been recycled — more than expert estimates but still a low amount. And they correctly reasoned that a majority of it has ended up in landfills and the environment.

Empowering consumers to cut waste

Post-consumer waste is the re-

sult of a long supply chain with environmental impacts at every stage. However, U.S. policy and corporate discourse focuses on consumers as the main source of waste, as implied by the term “post-consumer waste.”

Other approaches put more responsibility on producers by requiring them to take back their products for disposal, cover recycling costs and design and produce goods that are easy to recycle effectively. These approaches are used in some sectors in the U.S., including lead-acid car batteries and consumer electronics, but they are largely voluntary or mandated at the state and local level.

When we asked participants in our second study where change could have the most impact and where they felt they could have the most impact as individuals, they correctly focused on upstream interventions. But they felt they could only affect the system through what they chose to purchase and how they subsequently disposed of it — in other words, acting as consumers, not as citizens.

As waste-related pollution accumulates worldwide, corporations continue to shame and blame consumers rather than reducing the amount of disposable products they create. In our view, recycling is not a get-out-of-jailfree card for overproducing and consuming goods, and it is time that the U.S. stopped treating it as such.

catalysis. This process converts olefins into aldehydes, which can then be further reduced into important industrial alcohols.

“These products can be used to make a wide range of materials that are higher value,” says George Huber, a professor of chemical and biological engineering who led the work alongside postdoctoral researcher Houqian Li and Ph.D. student Jiayang Wu.

These higher-value materials include ingredients used to make soaps and cleaners, as well as other more useful polymers.

“We’re really excited about the implications of this technology,” says Huber, who also directs the Department of Energy-funded Center for the Chemical Upcycling of Waste Plastics. “It’s a platform technology to upgrade plastic waste using hydroformylation chemistry.”

The recycling industry could adopt the process soon; in recent years, at least 10 large chemical companies have built or announced plans for facilities to produce pyrolysis oils from waste plastics. Many of them run the pyrolysis oil through steam crackers to produce low-value compounds. The new chemical recycling technique could provide a more sustainable and lucrative way to use those oils.

“Currently, these companies don’t have a really good approach to upgrade the pyrolysis oil,” says Li. “In this case, we can get high-value alcohols worth $1,200 to $6,000 per ton from waste plastics, which are only worth about $100 per ton. In addition, this process uses existing technology and techniques. It’s relatively easy to scale up.”

The study was a collaborative effort across a few different UW–Madison departments, Huber says. Clark Landis, chair of the Department of Chemistry and a world expert on hydroformylation, suggested the possibility of applying the technique to pyrolysis oils. Chemical and biological engineering Professor Manos Mavrikakis used advanced modeling to provide molecular-level insight into the chemical processes. And chemical and biological engineering Professor Victor Zavala provided help analyzing the economics of the technique and the life cycle of the plastic waste.

The next step for the team is to tune the process and better understand what recycled plastics and catalyst combinations produce which final chemical products.

“There are so many different products and so many routes we can

pursue with this platform technology,” says Huber. “There’s a huge market for the products we’re making. I think it really could change the plastic recycling industry.”

Low-value waste plastic can be converted into high-value chemicals in a new process developed by UWMadison researchers.

Simply Slavic announces scholarship winners

YOUNGSTOWN — The Simply Slavic committee announced its 2023 scholarship winners at a recent festival volunteer dinner at Saints Peter and Paul Ukrainian Orthodox Church on North Belle Vista Avenue in Youngstown.

This year, two YSU students were awarded the $1,000 grants — a return to post-COVID normal thanks to the successful June festival and continued collaboration with Modern Methods Brewing Co. of Warren, Ohio.

In 2018, Simply Slavic officers and Modern Methods brewmaster conceived Rodina, a Czech Amber Lager showcasing spicy Czech Saaz noble hops, lager yeast and caramel

Bohemian malt. It was named after the word “family” in many Slavic languages. A portion of the proceeds from sales of the festival’s signature beer is allocated from Modern Methods to the scholarship fund annually.

The 2023 winners are:

Broadview Heights resident Andrew Kakosiak is a first-year graduate student in Music Theory and Composition at Dana School of Music. He is also a Lučina Slovak Folk Ensemble member and part of the National Slovak Society.

Youngstown resident Caitlin Hillard is a junior psychology major at the Beeghly College of Liberal Arts, Social Sciences and Education. She also is a

performer and assistant director of the Happy Hearts Jr. Tamburitzans.

Beginning in 2012, the all-volunteer organization presented a scholarship from funds generated by the annual June festival. Undergraduate YSU students who have completed their freshman year and are currently enrolled at YSU can apply.

Applicants share why they are interested in Slavic culture or history. Scholarship funds can be used for tuition or study materials and applied to study abroad programs. A panel of Simply Slavic scholarship committee members selects the winners after reviewing the essays, overall academic achievement and involvement in their culture.

Aimee Kemets Exec. for William Dudley Estate ~ Owner

Honestly, I would expect that after years of this, the mice would have evolved to realize that entering our abode is not a good life choice. Nope. They continue to make bad choices. I guess because they never returned home to tell of the horrors they witnessed, the other mice just think they went out for cigarettes and never came back?

Clean fight. Mouse stupidity aside, I do my best to fight the good fight. I don’t keep food in its original packaging. Everything that is in bags or boxes is transferred into tightly sealed glass or plastic containers. I allow no moisture and no bugs.

This is why it is amazing to me that these little brown ants are flourishing. What are they eating? Dish liquid? Air?

I am all about health (ours, not the ants). I tried all-natural methods. I scrubbed again. I crawled into cabinets looking for clues. Nothing.

As the ants continued marching along my otherwise pristine kitchen counter, I called in the big guns. Mr. Wonderful stomped around with a sprayer and chemicals with lots of warning labels. I hate that it had to come to that, but this is war.

The cat, for the record, is useless against ants. Although to be fair, I am too.

Antique Stores, Auctions and Shows

What’s a parade without flags?

By Terry and Kim Kovel

The first Labor Day was celebrated on Sept. 5, 1882, in New York City with a parade by trade union members, followed by an enormous outdoor party with speeches and picnics. President Grover Cleveland signed the holiday into national law in 1884, and Labor Day parades have been held throughout the United States since then. And, what’s a parade without flags to wave?

This turned wood flag holder, filled with 20 miniature cloth flags on wooden sticks, is ready for a celebration. It was originally a store display and recently sold for $540 at an AntiqueAdvertising.com auction.

The auction describes it as a Victorian item without a specific date given, so it may pre-date Labor Day. Based on the number of stars, the flags are from the early 20th century. But, it’s likely that stores offered flags in displays like these for the first Labor Day parades, as parade spectators continue waving flags today.

• • •

Q. I’ve had this oval bowl for a long time, and I don’t know anything about it. I recently saw one like it. It was a different color and looks like it’s glass. Mine is ceramic but the grape clusters

and vine details are the same. Could this be a Northwood bowl or is it a fake?

A. The Northwood Glass Company made pressed carnival glass, known for its iridescent glow. It was called “the poor man’s Tiffany glass,” made to imitate the look of expensive blown glass. The Grape and Cable pattern was a popular mass-produced pattern made by Northwood. Most Northwood glass has their underlined “N” mark on the bottom.

From your photo, the bowl looks like a ceramic version of the popular glass pattern and not an attempt to imitate carnival glass. Your bowl shows how popular the Grape and Cable pattern was with collectors. Northwood Grape and Cable carnival glass bowls have sold recently for $150 to $175. • • •

YSU Theatre announces 60th anniversary season

YOUNGSTOWN — Youngstown State University Theatre is announcing its 60th anniversary season, marking a significant milestone.

For over six decades, YSU Theatre has become a cornerstone of the performing arts community, fostering talent, inspiring creativity and captivating audiences with its productions. The upcoming season promises to be a celebration of the rich history, dedication and artistic excellence.

With a lineup that includes “Zombie Prom,” “Scapin,” “It’s a Small World or the Robot Play,” and “Once Upon a Mattress” theater enthusiasts can expect an exceptional experience at each performance, according to YSU Theatre.

• “Zombie Prom,” Oct. 6–8 and 13–

15. Kicking off the season on a high-energy note, “Zombie Prom” is a humorous musical that infuses the undead with a touch of rock ‘n’ roll. Set in the nuclear 1950s, this production tells the story of a teenage love affair gone awry, resulting in a zombie transformation.

• “Scapin,” Nov. 10–12 and 17–19. “Scapin,” a delightful comedy by Molière, promises to put audiences in stitches. This classic farce follows the misadventures of Scapin, a conniving servant with a knack for mischief and manipulation. As he navigates a web of love triangles and schemes, the play explores themes of deception, forgiveness and the triumph of wit.

• “It’s a Small World or the Robot Play,” Feb. 16–18 and 23–25. Taking

theater into the realm of science fiction, “It’s a Small World or the Robot Play” is a thought-provoking and visually-stunning production exploring artificial intelligence’s implications. Set in a future where robots coexist with humans, this play delves into the complexities of technology, humanity and the blurred lines between them.

• “Once Upon a Mattress,” April 5–7 and 12–14. Closing the season on a whimsical note is the enchanting musical “Once Upon a Mattress.”

Based on the beloved fairy tale “The Princess and the Pea,” this delightful show brings a cast of unforgettable characters to life. With hilarious twists, catchy tunes and a dash of romance, “Once Upon a Mattress”

offers a lighthearted and entertaining journey through the kingdom of merriment and happily-ever-afters.

Season subscriptions are now on sale. Season adult subscriptions are $55 and are available at ysu.tix. com. Discounts are also available for members of the YSU Alumni Society, Penguin Club, YSU faculty and staff and retirees and non-YSU students.

Mahoning County Public Health offering rabies vaccination clinic

CANFIELD, Ohio — Mahoning

County

Public Health will be sponsoring an upcoming rabies vaccination clinic for dogs, cats and ferrets on Sept. 10 from 9 a.m. to noon at Angels for Animals, 4750 W. South Range Road, Canfield, Ohio. Rabies is ever present in wildlife. It is a preventable, potentially deadly, viral disease most often transmitted through bites and scratches from unvaccinated pets, strays and wildlife. Individuals can protect themselves and their families from rabies by vaccinating pets, reducing pets’ exposure to wildlife, spaying or neutering pets to decrease the number of stray animals, avoiding contact with wildlife and stray animals and washing any animal bite areas thoroughly and following up with a doctor.

In Mahoning County, rabies vaccination is required for all

dogs, cats and ferrets over three months of age. Pet owners must have their pets on a leash, in a cage or carried inside a pillowcase. The cost is $8 per rabies shot (cash only). Costs are kept to a minimum through sponsorship by Mahoning County Public Health and volunteer services provided by Angels for Animals. This is a low-cost clinic that does not include a physical examination of the animal. The veterinary staff reserves the right not to vaccinate any animal in the event the animal appears to be in poor health. To receive the 3-year booster, bring proof of prior rabies vaccination on or after Sept. 9, 2023. Without proof of prior vaccination, the pet will receive a 1-year vaccination only. No appointment is necessary for rabies vaccinations.

Minerva’s Roxy Theatre will host a performance by Irish singer-songwriter Enda Reilly Sept. 10. (Submitted photo)

Auctioneers are reminded to notify Farm and Dairy when auctions are discontinued so that listings included above may be removed. Previously, auctioneers have failed to notify Farm and Dairy of such cancellations; as a result, listings of terminated auctions have continued to appear in the Weekly Auction listing. Keeping the Weekly Auction listing current benefits the readers who use it. We appreciate your assistance in this matter.

Pennsylvania 4-H announces scholarship winners

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Pennsylvania 4-H announced this year’s recipients of the Allen L. and Richard H. Baker Memorial 4-H Scholarship. Receiving awards are Nina Coolidge, of Tioga County, Caleb Antram, of Somerset County, Elizabeth Bruner, of Indiana County, and Taylor Rafferty, of Jefferson County.

The annual scholarship was established to honor Professor Allen L. Baker and his son Richard H. Baker for their years of dedicated service to the university.

Allen L. Baker was involved in 4-H club work for 38 years and was the state 4-H club leader for 37 years. Starting in 1946, Richard H. Baker worked for Penn State University for 38 years, serving as assistant treasurer and director of financial management from 1976 to 1984.

Penn State’s College of Agricultural Sciences awards the scholarship to current or former Pennsylvania 4-H members who have completed at least one semester and are enrolled as full-time undergraduate students at Penn State’s University Park campus

or at Commonwealth Campuses.

Coolidge, who was awarded $1,935, is pursuing a bachelor’s degree in agricultural and extension education. During her time in 4-H, Coolidge engaged in a variety of market and breeding livestock projects and community service. As a summer intern at the Tioga County 4-H office, she assisted in organizing youth programs. In college, Coolidge serves as a Farm Show Junior Committee member and a Global Learning in Agriculture intern and participates in campus clubs.

Antram, an animal science major, received a $1,850 award. While in 4-H, he participated in market and breeding livestock projects and square dancing. He was a National 4-H Congress delegate, camp counselor and leader in the Somerset County Council. Antram also worked as an artificial insemination technician for a local veterinarian and takes part in the Block and Bridle Club in college.

Bruner was awarded $1,000. A major in forest ecosystem management, Bruner’s 4-H activities included forestry/wildlife, shooting sports, expressive arts and livestock. She served as a national 4-H

shooting sports ambassador, a state 4-H council member, a National 4-H Congress delegate and an Indiana County 4-H ambassador. An active leader in her community, she represents many wildlife organizations and interned with the Pennsylvania Game Commission.

Rafferty received a $1,000 award. She is studying agricultural and extension education and wildlife technology. In 4-H, she participated in livestock, equine, community service and public speaking projects. She took part in the virtual program “Curbing Our Carbon Footprint,” which educated many schools about carbon’s environmental impact. A longtime exhibitor at the Pennsylvania Farm Show, Rafferty also mentors younger Jefferson County 4-H youth.

This year’s recipients of the Allen L. and Richard H. Baker Memorial 4-H Scholarships are Nina Coolidge, of Tioga County, Caleb Antram, of Somerset County, Elizabeth Bruner, of Indiana County and Taylor Rafferty, of Jefferson County. (Submitted photo)

Eric Keller

Comfortably Dumb

This is a good time to mention that my father was always very precise. When he built things, he would draw his own plans out like an engineer and know how many nails and boards he needed. I truly admire someone’s ability to do that, but I just don’t have it.

While I appreciate his preciseness, he had no appreciation for my unique methods. When I am building something, the image in my head just can’t be put to paper. I’ve tried, but I just can’t do it.

I have built some wonderful things; including, a deck and staircase for my in-laws, but my inability to be precise creates a lot of expensive sawdust. Measure once, cut thrice.

After watching countless YouTube videos on electric fencing, I decided to order one for our homestead. This little wire would allow us to move the cows and sheep around the property with ease.

I bought enough wire and fence posts to fence in a few miles, mostly because I didn’t know what I was doing and figured a little more wouldn’t hurt. However, that’s exactly what it did.

I mean it, I swear to you that setting that fence up hurt. I was cramping up so bad and my muscles were twitching uncontrollably, that it felt like I was having seizures all day long.

I went inside and immediately started looking for that pamphlet of papers that came with it. The same papers my wife was nagging me

discarded inside of the box because

I was convinced that I could just figure it out.

When I finally found the instruction manual, I read it cover to cover. But it didn’t help. In fact, it said the first thing you must do is train the animal on the fence because it is just a psychological barrier. But how could I train them if I wasn’t trained? And who’s gonna train me?

I went back outside with the confidence that only pure stupidity and ignorance can bestow on an individual. I wore leather gloves and tried to use the plastic hooks to manipulate and hold the wire, in order to avoid touching it while carefully moving it around the fence posts with the precision and skill of a surgeon.

But in the end, I managed to get shocked again. This time it was bad. It

and my leather gloves were soaked. It felt like I was playing the adult version of the board game operation. Except it was my body that was buzzing and the voltage was a lot higher.

I was angry. I stormed inside the house and called the company and when I finally talked to someone, they calmly asked if the energizer was off.

Before I could answer the question, reality sank in. I became embarrassed and realized that I had to confess the truth; so I grasped ahold of what little pride I had left and quickly hung up. I didn’t have to confess that day.

COLUMBUS — The Ohio Department of Aging’s popular 10 Million Steps to Prevent Falls campaign is back once again for Falls Prevention Awareness Month in September. The department is calling on community partners to do their part to raise awareness on older adult falls by hosting local walking groups and events.

10 Million Steps to Prevent Falls is an annual campaign to encourage Ohioans of all ages to walk at least one mile during the month of September. During last year’s campaign, participating Ohioans walked over 55 million steps, logging a total of 22,100 miles — the equivalent of walking around the perimeter of Ohio nearly 20 times.

Individuals, groups and organizations interested in hosting a walking event or group can find planning guides and register their event at the 10 Million Steps to Prevent Falls webpage, aging.ohio.gov/10millionsteps. Events and groups that are open to the public will be listed on the webpage beginning in early September. Find falls prevention tips and resources at steadyu.ohio.gov.

Ohio to be one of first to offer work ethic certification

COLUMBUS — Ohio 4-H youth development will be one of the first 4-H programs in the nation to offer high school students a work ethic certification. Designed by Mike Rowe, best known as the host of television’s “Dirty Jobs,” the work ethic curriculum will be offered under the Ohio 4-H Pathways to the Future initiative.

Ohio high schoolers can learn about the importance of work ethic, personal responsibility, delayed gratification and a positive attitude when it comes to future employment. Students who complete the program will receive a nationwide industry credential that demonstrates their ability to be an asset in the workplace.

Four Ohio 4-H professionals completed the training and can now offer the work ethic curriculum, and more 4-H and other extension educators are completing the training. Currently, the certification will be offered to students virtually every Monday and Wednesday, Sept. 18 through Oct. 4, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Learn more and register at go.osu.edu/mrwworkethic.

Now Here’s A Tip

By Jo Anne Derson

• R.L. in Utah writes: “Do onions make you cry? Tip: Cut off root first. Cut off top second. Remove outer skin and discard the first outer layer of the onion. Slice/dice/rings. Works great.” How do you cut your onions, and what helps to keep your eyes from watering? Write to us with your onion tips!

• You may not think to do this often, but you should: Clean your laptop! Not just the screen or keys, but the exterior as well. Get a microfiber cloth, spritz the cloth (never the machine itself) with a bit of isopropyl alcohol and rub away dirt and grime.

• “Grass stains can be removed from kids’ clothing by rubbing the stains with a bar of Ivory soap. (I keep one just for stains.)”

— M.F. in Washington

• Special for S.P. in California. To remove ball point ink from leather, your best weapon is a cotton swab and some rubbing alcohol. Be sure to test first in an inconspicuous spot, as not all leathers are equal. Certain synthetic leathers that are dyed may experience color loss in a spot cleaning with alcohol. Work slowly and don’t rub too hard. Condition afterward to protect the leather.

• It’s important to include only approved materials when recycling curbside, but conserving space allows the trucks to fit more per load, which is another great way to help the environment. A reader in North Carolina had something to say about this! They sent a great tip about nesting steel cans inside one another to compact space. You should also cut cardboard to smaller sizes and break down boxes, as well as crush plastic bottles and replace the caps.

• Making a smoothie with banana in it? When you’re done with that peel, chop it up (you can use a rinsed-out blender bottle) and chuck the pieces in your garden to provide food to plants and beneficial bugs.

Pa. 4-H’ers compete in wildlife habitat invitational

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Penn

State Extension sent two 4-H members — Carley Locke, of Erie County and Grace Ziegmont, of York County

— as delegates to the National Wildlife Habitat Education Program Invitational, held recently in Milford, Iowa.

This program offers a hands-on environmental education experience, allowing participants to engage in a friendly competition that tests their wildlife expertise. The initiative, organized by 4-H and FFA, is aimed at teaching youth ages 8-19 about wildlife and fisheries habitat management. The ecoregion of focus for this year was the Great Plains grasslands and tallgrass/mixed prairie.

Locke said that 4-H members learned about the benefits of promoting native plants and animals, managing invasive species and creating habitat management plans for local and regional health. She plans to encourage her grandmother to plant more native grasses.

Locke and Ziegmont qualified to represent Pennsylvania at the national event through their participation in the Wildlife and Forestry Field Day in May, which gave 4-H members from across Pennsylvania an opportunity to explore their interest in wildlife and forestry.

moths) most of my life, and the members of the giant silk moth family, with their tremendous size, striking coloration, and general wow-factor, have always held my greatest interest.

Here in northeast Ohio, we are home to 10 species of giant silk moths, from the Cecropia Moth, with the largest wingspan in North America, to the Royal Walnut Moth, whose giant caterpillar, the hickory horned devil, holds the largest mass. And who can overlook the delicate green Luna Moth with its twirled tails designed to jam the sonar of bats as they attempt to hunt them?

Have you ever noticed the array of nocturnal insects that come to rest beneath your porch light on a summer evening? Scrutinizing these visitors in June may result in being treated to a species of one of the largest, most magical moths in this area — the giant silk moth.

There is no ignoring this winged wonder, as it rests upon the side of your house or barn. I have been rearing Lepidoptera (butterflies and

Many species have large eyespots on their lower wings. Kept under cover, these “eyes” are flashed when the insect is threatened by a predator, such as a bird, startling it long enough for the insect to make an escape.

The largest species. With immense wings measuring up to 7 inches across, the Cecropia moth (Hyalophora cecropia) bests any other species in North America. Emerging from a

large, brown, silken cocoon, female Cecropias release pheromones after dark, “calling” males from up to 5 miles away. After mating for up to 17 hours, the pair parts ways the following night.

The female moth, packed with up to 300 eggs, takes flight in search of plants on which to deposit them. Each species of moth has certain flora that host their larvae.

Some moths only lay their eggs on only one species of plant, while others, like the Cecropia, have a choice of several. Cecropia caterpillars are a bluish-green with multicolored knobs on their heads. Measuring nearly 5 inches in length, they are as big around as plump hot dogs. When it comes to caterpillars, though, the hickory horned devil takes the prize. Not only is it a behemoth — topping out at 6 inches in length — but it is also the most spectacular in looks with its turquoise and green body and wicked orange horns tipped in black.

MWCD announces daily-use blinds only for duck hunting

NEW PHILADELPHIA, Ohio —

In a move towards sustainable and equitable use of natural resources, the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District announced a policy shift regarding duck blinds. Effective immediately, the use of seasonal duck blinds will no longer be permitted, and only daily-use duck blinds will be allowed.

This decision is rooted in the district’s commitment to promote fair access to our natural resources for all members of the community. “By transitioning to daily-use duck blinds, we aim to reduce the environmental impact of permanent structures while ensuring that every individual has an equal opportunity to enjoy the beauty of our wetlands and the thrill of waterfowl hunting,” the district said, in a statement.

Hunters must be aware of local hunting regulations. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service sets the frame-

works for waterfowl and other migratory game birds. Migratory bird hunting is governed by both state and federal regulations. For further in-

formation about hunting on MWCD property, and links to ODNR hunting rules and regulations, visit www. mwcd.org/hunting.

A WRANGLER’S RECKLESS WRITINGS

Whack the steering wheel

I drive two Chevy Silverados. Both have been well used.

You could almost say my Chevy trucks appear to be abused.

But they’re not abused, just older. And they’ve driven out their worth. Combined the mileage adds to fifteen times around the earth.

I shopped the local dealerships to purchase a new truck.

The price tag is a hair width shy of 80,000 bucks.

So I can’t afford to buy a Silverado off the lot.

I guess I’ll keep on driving the old Chevys that I’ve got. Each rig is used as backup for the other Chevy truck.

A breakdown always happens right along with my bad luck.

And now the older Chevy isn’t holding up its part.

Sometimes when you turn the key the blasted truck won’t start.

It’s not every time, while cranking, that my Chevy won’t kick in.

I think it has an evil mind, just like the devil’s kin.

We drove the other Chevy and so glad we had two trucks.

‘Cuz if we didn’t have both trucks, we’d be like sitting ducks. But just as luck would have it I misplaced the good truck keys. They disappeared about as fast as mice who stole the cheese. The locksmith ordered keys. He said it takes a week or so.

Then hopefully we’d get our Chevy truck back on the go. So now we had no choice. The older Chevy was a must.

You don’t drive from hell to breakfast with a truck you cannot trust. That night while eating tuna fish with peas and cream-style corn, I heard the Chevy cranking then a blaring on the horn. Well sure enough the clunker wouldn’t start for my good wife.

for bears – in the yard behind the center.

Registration is required by sending contact information to beavercreekw@aol.com. The activity works best with 15 to 20 people. If there are not enough participants, an alternative activity is planned.

I darn near grabbed the twelve-gauge. End the worthless Chevy’s life. With both trucks broken down we were in dire straits for real. I must have lost my temper ‘cuz I whacked the steering wheel. Then I witnessed a small miracle. My Chevy came alive.

Beating on the steering wheel gave me a truck to drive. Well since that day and when my Chevy doesn’t do its part, I whack the steering wheel two times. My Silverado starts.

Hickory horned devil in the wild

(Continued from Page C1)

during this crawling stage in late summer that the giant silk moth caterpillars become most conspicuous. They are often seen crossing roads and sidewalks or making their way up and down trees or the sides of buildings. It is hard not to notice one of these massive green or brown sausages as they make their way determinedly along.

Life cycle. During the month of June, adult moths emerge from their lengthy slumber, either from within a silken cocoon or an earthen cell beneath the ground. They have no mouth parts and thus do not feed.

In fact, they simply live long enough to find a mate and deposit their eggs on various host plants. In less than 10 days, they perish. These eggs, scattered among bushes and trees, hatch within two weeks, and the tiny caterpillars begin their job as full-time eating machines.

As they grow, they shed their skin. The period between sheds is termed an “instar,” and most caterpillars have five of them. During this time, the growth they experience is phenomenal, some consuming 27,000 times their body weight!

During the months of July and August, caterpillars have but one thing on their mind. When they have reached their full size and can’t muster another bite, they simply drop off the plant, hitting the ground with a loud thud. It’s time to travel, time to locate the perfect spot in which to continue their metamorphosis.

Late-summer caterpillars. It is

During this stage, they are extremely vulnerable, becoming a meal for many predators or being squashed by an automobile or human. Unfortunately, many people equate all of these large caterpillars with the much-disliked “tomato hornworm” (which is actually a sphinx moth, not a giant silk moth) and are quick to end their lives. It is hard to imagine all the beauty that is snuffed out with such an ignorant act.

Finally, after crawling for what seems like miles, the caterpillar finds for what it has been searching. Whether it is a sheltered spot or sturdy branch on which to spin its silken cocoon or some loose soil in which to burrow deep down and form a pupa, the caterpillar is ready to enter the final, and lengthiest stage of its life.

Throughout the chilly autumn rains and frigid winter temperatures, it sleeps within its chamber. During this time, chemical changes are occurring. The pupa, once an egg, then a crawling caterpillar is morphing again.

As the warmth of spring arrives, the final changes occur and finally, in June, the moth emerges in stunning glory to take flight into the summer night.

(A lifelong resident of Geauga County in northeast Ohio, Tami Gingrich recently re-

When confronted by a predator, the caterpillar thrashes its head around hoping to intimidate it into retreat. In reality, the caterpillar is completely harmless. (Tami Gingrich photo)

Vayda Stelzer found this hickory horned devil at West Branch State Park on Aug. 29, crawling through the grass. It was the highlight of her last day of summer vacation as finding these caterpillars in the wild is incredibly rare. And, as fate would have it, her mom, Sara Welch, was describing the incredible pictures in Tami Gingrich’s column on the way there but couldn’t show her due to poor cell phone service. The turquoise color of this particular hickory horned devil is an indicator that changes are already taking place, and it was likely searching for a place to burrow. (Sara

Pennsylvania invests in hardwoods industry

ST. MARY’S, Pa. — Agriculture

Secretary Russell Redding joined the Pennsylvania Hardwoods Development Council at WOODBED CORP

Aug. 24 to recognize the strength of Pennsylvania’s agriculture sector and highlight how the 2023-24 budget’s significant investment will further the growth and impact of the Hardwoods Development Council and forest products industry.

The budget, signed earlier this month by Gov. Josh Shapiro, increased the funding for hardwood research and promotion from $474,000 to $725,000. This is an increase of more than 50% from the previous year’s funding, which marks an important step in furthering the mission of the Hardwoods Development Council and its partners to support this impactful industry.

The Aug. 24 visit by Redding highlighted WOODBED CORP, one of the region’s leading suppliers of mulch and wood fiber products.

WOODBED CORP General Manager, Sam DeLullo, led a tour of the facility and discussed plans to use a U.S. Department of Agriculture Wood Innovations Grant to improve low-grade wood utilization and invasive pest control by enhancing their operation to provide kiln-dried commercial firewood and home heating products.

RUBES©

The Hardwoods Development Council is responsible for the development, expansion and promotion of the hardwood industry by working with state and local governments and a wide variety of partners to promote healthy working forests and sustainable, multiple-use management of timber resources on private and public land. The council also assists in developing domestic and foreign markets that support sustainable forest management.

This work is rounded out by extensive efforts to promote public knowledge of the forest products industry in Pennsylvania by raising awareness of the role that forest products play in the daily lives of all citizens through initiatives like the Pennsylvania WoodMobile. The WoodMobile is a traveling education exhibit that provides an interactive experience about the commonwealth’s forests and has hosted over 2 million visitors since its start in 2002.

With nearly 17 million acres of forestland, Pennsylvania has the most abundant hardwood forest in the country and accounts for $21.8 billion in direct and $39.1 billion in indirect impacts on the state’s economy. More than 60,000 Pennsylvanians — 10% of the state’s manufacturing workforce — are employed in the forest products industry.

Here are two situations where you need to be alarmed and vigilant

1. If the buyer of your equipment refuses to speak to you over the phone or in-person. Most buying scams happen via text messages and/or email.

2. If the buyer sends you a check in an amount HIGHER than the agreed upon price of your equipment, and then asks you (the seller) to refund the overpayment via wire transfer.

If this or a similar scam has happened to you, please do not hesitate to contact Farm and Dairy at 800-837-3419 or contact the Consumer Protection Division of the Attorney General of your state.
