View descriptionShare

Wisconsin has a unique opportunity for citizens to chime in on guidance for the state's natural resources.  How should state parks be monitored, along with natural resources.  It's all fair game for conversations according to Paul Reith, delegate for the Wisconsin Conservation Congress.  The event happens April 13-15 statewide.  He says it started with anxiety over the state's whitetail deer population.  Today it involves conversation on everything from boating practices to hunting limits.  He explains some of the history and what's expected this year to Pam Jahnke.

Warmer temps this week could mean a little more snow on the way for Wisconsin.  Stu Muck fills us in.The WI Corn/Soy Expo concluded on Friday in Wisconsin Dells. 

While most of the messages weren't necessarily optimistic, farms are monitoring developments globally.  Ben Jarboe talks to Steve Metzger, president of the American Soybean Association about the trade entanglements that are slowing soybean movement globally.  He says sales are wonderful as long as the transaction actually happens.

The Wisconsin Pork Association was also a part of the Corn/Soy Expo.  Stephanie Hoff found out that producers are still battling against individual state mandates that dictate production standards.   Duane Stateler, president, National Pork Producers Council says that language adopted in CA and MA are creating consumer confusion and frustration and marketing nightmares for processors.
