Heat. Horses. Hydration.

When a horse sweats, it loses more than water.

In the August 2026 digital edition of Oklahoma Farm & Ranch, Ann Asher explains when electrolytes may benefit horses that are working, hauling or competing in hot weather. The article also covers daily salt needs, safe supplement use and why electrolytes should never replace clean water or veterinary care.

America 250: The wheat that changed the Great Plains

Some of the most important changes in American agriculture began with something as small as a seed.

When Mennonite immigrants brought Turkey Red wheat from Eastern Europe to the Great Plains in the 1870s, they introduced a wheat well suited to the region's challenging growing conditions. Its success helped establish hard red winter wheat across the Central and Southern Plains and provided the foundation for generations of wheat varieties that followed.

That legacy continues in Oklahoma, where hard red winter wheat remains an important part of our agricultural landscape.

We're celebrating America's 250th birthday by looking back at the people, innovations and milestones that helped shape our nation's wheat industry.

Thank you, Oklahoma State University Extension!

A vital step in the prevention and treatment of New World screwworm happens under a microscope. 🪰

The OSU Plant Disease and Insect Diagnostic Laboratory (PDIDL) helps protect Oklahoma agriculture by identifying plant diseases, insect pests and emerging threats. The lab also supports Oklahoma’s preparedness efforts by screening suspect insect samples submitted through county Extension offices, providing an important first step in the early detection of pests such as New World screwworm.
