Ohio members are automatically extended membership to the national level for even more networking opportunities and learning experiences. \nThe 2025 meeting theme is “Feeding Forages ↔ Forages Feeding Us” and will feature information on how to manage forages following a record drought year\, cutting edge research from The Ohio State University\, producer insights from local hay\, beef\, and dairy farmers\, information on solar grazing with sheep\, special guests from the Nature Conservancy\, and a session on hot topics in the forage industry.
