This booklet contains the on-farm research results of Extension agents, Extension state specialists, and researchers affiliated with the Ohio State University Extension Agronomic Crops Team. Results are primarily from experiments conducted during 1997. All but one of the research trials in the main body of the report contained at least three replications. The only exception is an extensive corn variety test that incorporated alternate check strips to account for soil variability. Several trials of general interest that did not contain a minimum of three replications are included in an appendix. It is our hope that the publishing of these applied research reports will enhance our efforts in meeting the needs of Ohio farmers and the state's agricultural industry.
