 

New World Screwworm is making headlines and also making U.S. beef producers very nervous.  With budget cuts everywhere in the federal budget, they're worried about what inspection hole might be vulnerable to the pest getting into the U.S.  Jill Welke uncovers what we don't know about the pest and how to eradicate it with Sigrid Johannes from the National Cattlemen's Beef Association.

Hit and miss showers are going to be a part of the rest of the week in Wisconsin.  Stu Muck explains that, and the temperature fluctuations we could experience.

Weather's been just right for Wisconsin's asparagus crop!  That happy news comes from Green Barn Farm Market in Ripon.  Charitee Seebecker talks with operator Heather Brandt about the crop and the 10 acres they manage and harvest.

Wisconsin farmers are alarmed at what they've read in the "Make America Healthy Again" Commission report.  During a Senate hearing last week, Secretary Robert F. Kennedy from Health and Human Services said allegations that the report would cost farmers their way of life were "totally inaccurate".

John Heinberg takes a closer look at the tariff discussion that transpired over the weekend.  Wall Street is rallying while commodities are focused on weather.  Cattle on Feed report came out Friday verifying what most already know.  Cattle are scarce.
