Secretary Rollins Comments On Trade Wars & Brain Drain

This weekend the final race of the triple crown unfolds in New York and the Belmont Stakes.  Once those trained athletes have raced, and bred, what's next?  For some - retirement.  Bob Bosold visits with Tom Beatty, a volunteer at a farm called "Old Friends".  It's the retirement home for over 300 horses in Georgetown, KY, that may have raced in one place or another, or are just a valuable part of someone's family.  Beatty explains how the farm got its start, and who some of their famous stablemates are.

Measurable rain is on the way for most of Wisconsin today and tomorrow, slowing down planting progress.  Stu Muck explains where it's coming from and where it will be heaviest.

Wisconsin is finally in the final leg of preparation to join the national testing campaign tracing H5N1 in dairy.  Although the states been testing for the virus since last fall, becoming a part of the national USDA effort has brought challenges.  Stephanie Hoff visits with WI Ag Secretary, Randy Romanski and WDATCP Administrator of the Division of Food and Recreational Health, Adam Brock.


Wisconsin farmers kept rolling on spring planting chores.  Pam Jahnke reports that 73% of the states corn and 66% of the soybeans were in the ground as of Sunday.  Plus, about 5% of the first cutting of alfalfa hay has already been harvested.

Markets are talking rain delays in the eastern corn belt.  John Heinberg, market advisor with Total Farm Marketing in West Bend says the planting progress numbers intrigued traders.  Meanwhile, watch cattle.  A bubble burst in the market on prices last week, but consumers keep visiting the beef showcase at the retail level.
