Andy Larson - Farm Program Director for Food Finance Institute

We start our morning with the Fabulous Farm Babe and USDA's Richard Fordyce. They talk about the security measures that are in place to keep farmer data secure. 


Stu Muck says lower temperatures, and a little rain are possible going into the week of World Dairy Expo.


Carey Jones is still working the land of his Richland County farm in the Township of Richwood. He's raising beef cattle, growing corn and soybeans -- while also holding down a full-time job. It's important. The farm has gone through seven generations during the last 100 years. But at times, Jones had to fight to get pieces of it back. Paid for by Compeer Financial.


Is the next major health food cranberry juice? A Wisconsin grower thinks it may be. Larry Lee talks with the Warrens family.


To round out a series filled with impactful stories, Pam Jahnke visits with Dorothy Harms. She is the founder of the Farmer Angel Network. Mental Health Week series paid for by Rural Mutual Insurance.

With Wisconsin's first fall case of HPAI confirmed at a turkey farm near Rice Lake, Dr. Keith Poulsen, Director of the Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory, discusses farm biosecurity with Larry Lee.  What's the meaning of "Gold Status" and what the new findings of the virus in Texas cattle might mean for Wisconsin beef and dairy producers. 

Another beautiful day on the way.  The exception might be in far western Wisconsin, and possibly on the Iowa/WI border.  Stu Muck says some stray showers could swing in there.  Otherwise a sunny, calm day on the way.

When McKenna Reichling was 17 years old, she lost her older brother, Myles, to suicide. Although she was still in high school, she realized the importance of mental health and decided it was time to take better care of her own. Since then, she says she has become, “ an advocate for my family, for myself, and for, you know, our whole community just to advocate for mental health and resilience.”

This series is presented by Rural Mutual Insurance. 

What's going on?  With the holidays just around the corner, Wisconsin cheesemakers and the dairy farms that work with them are accustomed to escalated sales.  This year - it's missing.  Jenny Wackershauser, dairy analyst with EverAg in Platteville, says it's because of high diesel prices.  Reimbursement on freight shipments are meeting actual expenses, and companies are hesitant to make a move.  Wackershauser says that's the same pattern being witnessed in retail featuring of dairy products.
