This week was historic for Plover, Wisconsin. On Thursday, for the first time ever, a sitting Vice President made the trip to the village in central Wisconsin. Stephanie Hoff was there in the press pool as JD Vance toured a local manufacturing facility. While the speech was meant to rally voters for the upcoming Congressional and Wisconsin gubernatorial races, the rhetoric hit on familiar national notes – ones we heard during the President’s State of the Union address, like tax-free tips, drug pricing, and falling crime rates. But when the floor opened for questions, media outlets wanted to discuss rural infrastructure topics like health care, agriculture, and data centers. Stephanie asked the VPOTUS if this administration is prioritizing the trade deals Wisconsin farmers need.

Professional Dairy Producers’ Business conference has a slated agenda with 40 speakers in over 50 sessions. A convention undertaking of that size, requires a coordinated leadership board and conference committee to lean a close listening ear to their fellow producers. Shelly Mayer is the executive director of the organization. She tells me that they consider what is presently happening in the industry when planning the conference.
