WOOSTER, Ohio — Ohio State University’s new Transition Guide to Certified Organic Crop Management can now be bought online through Ohio State University Extension’s new, secure store at http://estore.osu-extension.org/productdetails.cfm?PC=2120.
Published by the Organic Food and Farming Education and Research program, the book explains the rules and realities of switching to organic production. Grains, fruits and vegetables are the focus.
“It’s the only manual of its kind in Ohio,” said Organic Food and Farming Education and Research Coordinator Deb Stinner, “and there are very few like it anywhere else in the United States.
“It helps make the federal guidelines for organic crop production understandable and is filled with both practical and scientific information about things farmers can do to meet these guidelines.”
