Pastures For Profit Returns to Logan County in June

Pastures For Profit Returns to Logan County in June


By Andi Anderson

The “Pastures for Profit” workshop series will be offered in person this June in Logan County, Ohio. This two-day educational program is designed to help farmers improve pasture use, grazing strategies, and on-farm management practices.

A collaboration between Ohio State University Extension, the Ohio Forage and Grassland Council, the Ohio Department of Agriculture, and Soil and Water Conservation Districts, Pastures for Profit has supported Ohio producers since the 1990s.

This year’s program takes place on June 10 and 12, starting each evening at 5:30 p.m. The Tuesday session will include classroom-based presentations on grazing goals, plant physiology of perennial forages, and soil fertility. Experts from ODA, OSU, and NRCS will share updated information, including new worksheets and soil management guidelines.

On Thursday, the session will move to a local farm, where participants will get practical experience with fencing tools, pasture evaluation, and plant identification. The hands-on component is designed to help attendees apply what they learn to real-life settings.

The 2025 program also features a newly updated manual with revised goal-setting sheets, improved soil management tips, and current information for forage-based systems.

This workshop is ideal for both new and experienced graziers looking to enhance their farm’s sustainability and productivity through better pasture management.

For more details on how to register or participate, contact your local OSU Extension office or visit the Ohio Forage and Grassland Council’s website.

Whether you're managing livestock, restoring pasture, or improving forage quality, Pastures for Profit provides the knowledge and tools needed to make informed decisions and boost farm results.
