Richland County has been known historically for its agriculture. The county has a diverse agricultural base ranging from livestock to greenhouse plants. The livestock industry is not as large as it once was, but dairy, beef, pork and chicken production is still represented in the county. There is also a growing green industry with several landscape nurseries and greenhouses providing bedding plants to shrubs for gardeners. Field crops are still an important part of agriculture in Richland County, however land normally used in producing grain and forages is giving way to urban development. Less than fifty percent of the land is now in production. Many farmers are diversifying their farming operations and turning to alternative crops and enterprises to make the farm lifestyle sustainable. Ohio Timber Price Report Returns Last year the USDA decided to stop producing the Ohio Timber Price Report as a cost cutting measure. With leadership from OSU Extension, OARDC and the Ohio Division of Forestry the Price Report is now available again.
