Over the past few years, the city of Madison has been partnering with Wisconsin soybean farmers and other agriculture groups to move its truck fleet toward 100 percent biodiesel. Biodiesel is a fuel made from soybeans, and it's helping the city cut emissions. Fleet Superintendent Mahanth Joishy tells Mid-West Farm Report about the progress. Joishy is also looking forward to claiming the first wood chipper to run on B100.

B100 Working Year-Round In Madison

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.
