Its time to
assess crop
loss damage
By JIM LANGHAM
Feature Writer
PAULDING Ohio State
University Extension educator Sarah Noggle is spending her time these days assessing crop damage from
recent heavy rains. While it
is difficult to estimate total
impact, Noggle said there is
no doubt that ponding and
heavy run-off rain has taken
a toll on Paulding County
fields.
We got quite a bit more
rain last week, Noggle said.
Flooding issues increased
because of ponding pressure in flooding situations.
I would say people need to
prepare to start to truly assess crop loss damage.
In corn areas, its hard to
tell the affect that its had or
whether the corn is going to
survive, continued Noggle.
In some of the earlier corn,
the crops could possibly still
be there. In the later planted
corn, there are going to be
some issues.
Noggle said that corn can
survive up to four days in
standing water, providing
that weather conditions are
cool. The risk potentially
increases in warm weather.
She has been getting reports
of issues of corn with rootworm. She noted variety can
determine the damage assessment.
As we see rootworm populate, they start to kill developing corn roots, Noggle
said. The only good thing
that comes out of rain is that
heavy rains tend to drown
out small rootworm larvae.
Whatever hybrid you use,
farmers still need to look at
those roots once larvae is
complete.
Noggle said that saturated
soil conditions will also provide the optimum conditions
for the water molds that are
common across the state.
In these cases, the whole
roots are brown, sometimes
with dark brown lesions on
the roots and the tissues can
be brown to tan, Noggle
said. Both Phytophthora
sojae pythium are contributing to this problem.
Once the soybeans are at
the V2 growth state or greater, the protection from the
seed treatment is gone and
we are relying on the soybean plants defense system
to mitigate the damage,
added Noggle.
Obviously the soybeans
have been planted later
than corn. Many fields have
standing water. If you dig up
the roots of the plants, they
may or may not be brown,
said Noggle. You can look
at the cortical cells on the
outside of the plant. You can
just take those and pull them
off.
Noggle said that in plants
that are under water, oxygen
has been deleted and carbon dioxide is building up,
which causes the soybean
plants to suffocate.
Any wet soil doesnt get
as many nodules, Noggle
observed. As wet as things
are, we have perfect conditions for water mold.
Concerning wheat, Noggle said that two main issues
are the development of head
scabs and vomitoxin. If a
wheat field has head scab
or head blight, it is going to
reduce the yield as kernels
become infected.

A delegation from the Ukraine visited Paulding County last Thursday. The purpose for their
visit to northwest Ohio was to see first hand the operation of alternative energy facilities and to
gain knowledge and understanding in ways to develop renewable energy for the Ukraine while
focusing on economic development. Craig Stoller (far right), owner of Haviland Plastics Products,
answers questions at Quasar, located across the street from the plastics facility in Haviland.

HAVILAND A Ukraine delegation recently spent a week in northwest Ohio learning about renewable and alternative energy sources. One day was spent in Paulding
County as the delegation received a first hand
look at how renewable energy is working in
Haviland at the Haviland Plastic Products/
Quasar BioMass facility. Also visited during
last Thursdays tour was the Timber II Wind
Farm near Payne.
The energy efficiency professional program
was sponsored by the Open World Leadership Center while being organized through
the Great Lakes Consortium. The week long
learning experience allowed the group of
young Ukrainian professionals the opportunity to learn, while viewing practices here in

The show was especially
emotional for me because I can
remember as a child heading
out to the machine shed with
my siblings and playing in the
back of a hopper wagon full of
corn, soybean or wheat, without my parents or grandparents
knowing. Back in the 1980s,
the grain wagons werent the
size they are now, and it was
fun to pretend were digging for
a buried treasure. At that time
as young as we were my brother and I had no idea how dangerous this could be that is,
until my father found out. Once
Dad explained the dangers, we
were done playing in the hopper wagons.
As I started at the Extension
Office late in 2013, farm safety has been one of my highest
priorities. Since 1978, Purdue
University has been documenting agricultural confined space
incidents throughout the United
States. Approximately 1,500
cases have been documented
and entered into Purdues Agriculture Confined Spaces Incident Database (PACSID), with
the earliest case dating back to
1964. Today, too many times,
victims of grain entrapment are
working in much fuller bins,
and things go south so quickly
that theyre pulled beneath the
pile and suffocated literally
within seconds.
Bin entrapments often end in
utter tragedy: death of a father,
sibling, other family member,
or employee maybe someone

Commissioners Journal May 20, 2015
This 20th day of May, 2015, the Board of County
Commissioners met in regular session with the following
members present: Roy Klopfenstein, Tony Zartman, Mark
Holtsberry, and Nola Ginter, Clerk.
MEETING NOTES OF APPOINTMENTS
Niki Warncke, Maumee Valley Planning Organization,
presented the FY 2015 CDBG allocation and competitive
grant information. She reported receiving 10 applications
for projects in various villages and townships. Paulding Countys total FY 2015 allocation is $75,000, with
$15,000 deducted as administrative and Fair Housing allowance.
Warncke reminded the commissioners they may award
three projects. After reviewing the applications and considering past awards, the commissioners decided on the
awards.
Warncke will contact the entities chosen to make sure
the award will be sufficient to complete their project. The
second hearing is to be on June 10 at 11 a.m. in the commissioners office.
Jared Renollet, Paulding County Dog Warden, met
with the commissioners to update them on the dog kennel
activities. He reported he has handled 106 dogs so far in
2015, which is significantly less than the same time frame
in 2014.
Renollet noted the recent fundraiser, Paws for a
Cause, was a success. He extended this thanks to everyone who worked hard to make the event happen.
Renollet expressed the need for a utility shed at the dog
kennel site to store the lawnmower and large dog crates.
He noted he is currently using a dog pen for this purpose.
The commissioners advised Renollet to investigate possible storage space in the building currently on site.
Renollet also suggested he could use a walk-on scale
and a couple of live traps (small and large). He reported
he has plenty of donated dog food. He reported moderate
activity at the dog kennel and advised the commissioners
he has a body camera he uses when appropriate. The commissioners commended Renollet in a job well done.
County Auditor Claudia Fickel presented the Sales
Tax Revenue report for May; General Fund Receipts
report and General Fund Expense report for April. The
May 2015 sales tax received was $141,707.43, which was
down slightly from May 2014; however, up from April
2015, and up from the four-year average for the month of
May. April General Fund receipts were down from March
and down from the four-year average; however, up from
April 2014.
April General Fund expenses were up from March
2015, as well as for March 2014, and the four-year average. General Fund receipts exceed General Fund expenses
by $224,651.93 through April 2015. Fickel reported conveyance fees are down.
She reminded commissioners the Homestead applications are due June 1, 2015. Consideration for the exemption is income driven ($30,500 in 2014 and $31,000
in 2015). You must also be 65 years or older, own and
occupy your home, or be permanently disabled.
Judge Tiffany Beckman, Common Pleas Court, presented two invoices for attorney fees from the recent
Noffsinger trial. She noted it was somewhat of a challenge
to retain qualified attorneys for the trial. Both attorneys
are from Lima.
She also discussed the possibility of using grant dollars

it seemed I couldnt keep it

water to grow well? I finally
got rid of it. Maybe its the
gardening version of how

need a rain shower, I should
dig out a hydrangea or something.
Yep, hydrangeas love water
too. Just look at their botanical name. Hydra denotes
water and the H. macrophylla
types especially love it. In my
gardens, theyre the indicator
plants. When they start wilting, I know its time to think
about giving the gardens some
supplemental water.
There are some hydrangeas
that tolerate dry conditions
better than others though. H.
quercifolia, or oak leaf hydrangea, (Ruby Slippers and
Snow Queen) is one. H. paniculata (Limelight and Vanilla Strawberry) is another.

When returning to your home following
a flood and water has entered your home or
dwelling, be aware that flood water may contain sewage and other types of disease. When
this is the case, the following precautions
should be considered.
INSIDE THE HOME
Keep children and pets out of the affected area until cleanup has been completed.
Wear rubber boots, rubber gloves, and
goggles during cleanup of affected area.
Remove and discard items that cannot
be washed and disinfected (such as mattresses, carpeting, carpet padding, rugs, upholstered furniture, cosmetics, stuffed animals,
baby toys, pillows, foam-rubber items, books,
wall coverings, and most paper products).
Remove and discard drywall and insulation that has been contaminated with sewage or flood waters.
Thoroughly clean all hard surfaces
(such as flooring, concrete, molding, wood
and metal furniture, countertops, appliances,
sinks, and other plumbing fixtures) with hot
water and laundry or dish detergent.
Help the drying process by using fans,
air conditioning units, and dehumidifiers.
After completing the cleanup, wash
your hands with soap and warm water. Use
water that has been boiled for one minute
(allow the water to cool before washing your
hands); or you may use water that has been
disinfected for personal hygiene use (solution
of 1/8 teaspoon of household bleach per 1 gallon of water). Let it stand for 30 minutes. If the
water is cloudy, use a solution of teaspoon
of household bleach per 1 gallon of water.
Wash all clothes worn during the cleanup in hot water and detergent. These clothes
should be washed separately from uncontaminated clothes and linens.
Wash clothes contaminated with flood
or sewage water in hot water and detergent. It
is recommended that a laundromat be used for
washing large quantities of clothes and linens
until your onsite waste-water system has been
professionally inspected and serviced.
Seek immediate medical attention if
you become injured or ill.
OUTSIDE THE HOME
Keep children and pets out of the affected area until cleanup has been completed.
Wear rubber boots, rubber gloves, and
goggles during cleanup of affected area.
Have your onsite waste-water system
professionally inspected and serviced if you
suspect damage.
Wash all clothes worn during the cleanup in hot water and detergent. These clothes
should be washed separately from uncontaminated clothes and linens.
After completing the cleanup, wash
your hands and follow the same instructions
used for inside the home.
Seek immediate medical attention if

COMMUNITY RECYCLING
By Sarah Noggle
OSU Extension Educator
Paulding County
PAULDING This summer has been a
challenging one for many Ohio vegetable gardeners. It started with a prolonged cold, wet
spring, was followed by a couple of weeks of
intense heat and drought, and then followed
by torrential rains! Heavy rains or flooding
creating excessively wet soil combined with
high temperatures can create stressful and potentially deadly, conditions for bedding plants,
perennials, vegetables, shrubs and even trees.
Gardens that have been in a prolonged saturated condition may present some surprising
symptoms, ranging from wilting, yellowing
or drooping foliage to blossom-end rot. When
soil is saturated for an extended period, roots
are deprived of much-needed oxygen. When
the soil is saturated with water, pore space in
the soil that normally hold air are filled with
water.
Since the roots of the plants get the oxygen
they need from the air in those pore spaces, the
roots of the plants can literally drown when
soils stay waterlogged for an extended period. A sick root system leads to a sick plant. A
damaged root system cannot keep up with the
moisture needs of the plant.
As the root system becomes compromised,
symptoms above the ground may appear similar to those you would expect during drought:
wilting of the foliage, blossom drop and blossom-end rot of certain fruits.
High temperatures make it even more difficult for the plant to keep up with moisture
needs, since plants are constantly losing water
as vapor through the leaves. In addition, lack
of oxygen in the soil can lead to buildup of
ethylene gas in the roots, causing even further
damage. This ethylene can cause leaves and
stems to suddenly droop, particularly near the
top of the plant.
Wet conditions also encourage fungus organisms in the soil to attack the roots or crown
of a plant and cause rot. The crown is the area
where the stem of a plant enters the soil. These
disease organisms can cause dieback or severe
damage or even kill plants. Once infection occurs, little can be done to help a plant.
If waters recede quickly, many crops will
make a comeback as soils dry and air returns.
It will take some time for new roots to grow.
In the meantime, plant damage symptoms are
likely to continue, at least for a bit. When roots
are unable to adequately take up water, the
mineral nutrients normally contained in that
water will not be available to the plant. Deficiency symptoms, such as yellowing foliage,

HAVILAND Changing the daily start time
beginning in August, the renewal of an existing
income tax levy and special recognition was given to both students and staff for their achievements were part of the Wayne Trace Local Board
of Education on Thursday, June 18.
Prior to the regular called meeting, a public
meeting was held for the purpose of receiving
input concerning moving the start time 15 minutes later. Although no public representation
was in attendance, superintendent Steve Arnold
reported the main reasons for the time change
were all transportation related.
The primary reason for moving class time forward 15 minutes is for the purpose of making
a smoother transition to and from Vantage and
secondly, the extra time would possibly help on
days when there is fog. With no opposition, the
Board voted to accept the new time changes.
Start time for each school for 2015-16 will be:
Wayne Trace Junior/Senior High School - start at
8:05 a.m. and will conclude at 2:55 p.m.; Payne
and Grover Hill Elementary - will start at 8:55 a.m.
and end at 3:30 p.m.
Following the public meeting and during the
regular called meeting, a resolution was approved
allowing the board to renew the current five-year
0.75 percent income tax levy. The levy will be
placed on the November ballot.
Recognition was given to teachers from each
building in the district. The teachers were honored
with the Excellence in Education Award. From
Payne Elementary, fourth grade teacher April Krouse; from Grover Hill, retired second grade teacher
Mary McVey and Sharon Spinner representing the
junior-senior high school who specializes in band
and choir were this years recipients.
The board also acted on the following:

Gardening tips
after all the rain
By Sarah Noggle
OSU Extension Educator
Paulding County
PAULDING Here are some tips for gardens affected by the recent heavy rains:
Under saturated conditions, mulch should
be pulled back from around plants or removed
from beds entirely. This will allow evaporation to help the soil dry faster.
You can help plants that were affected
by wet soils or root
rot by aerating the
soil in the root zone.
Using a garden
fork, drive the tines
straight down into the
soil about 8 inches
and pull straight out
in numerous places
around the shrubs.
Do not dig with the
fork, but make as
many holes as seems
practical. This technique provides air to the roots and encourages
the soil to dry faster. A metal rod or wooden
dowel could also be used to make the holes.
Pests such as snails and slugs, which chew
holes in leaves and flowers of many plants, thrive
and reproduce rapidly during rainy weather. Try
not to let their populations get out of control. If
you have toads in your garden, thats great because they feed on slugs. You can place a bowl
up to its rim in the ground and fill it half full of
beer to attract and drown many snails and slugs
or remove them by hand and dispose of them humanely.
Heavy rains over an extended period will
leach available nutrients from the soil in the
landscape. This is especially true of nitrogen
and potassium but not so much for phosphorous. Give your plants a chance to recover
from the saturated soils, and fertilize if needed
if they do not improve. Do not fertilize hardy trees, shrubs and lawns after August, even
after heavy rains. Late fertilization can make
them less winter hardy. Do consider fertilizing
bedding plants and vegetable gardens, if needed. Dried blood meal can add nitrogen to soil
while rock potash can supply potassium.
Do not consume any vegetables that may
have been touched by floodwater. There may be
contaminants in the water. In general, fruits and
vegetables which were immature at the time of
flooding should be safe to eat by the time they
are ready to harvest. Some fruits and vegetables
are more susceptible than others to bacterial contamination.
Leafy vegetables such as lettuce, cabbage,
mustard, kale, collards, spinach, swiss chard,
celery, and fleshy vegetables and berry fruits
such as tomatoes, summer squash, strawberries
and peppers are highly susceptible to bacterial
