Drone technology has become a part of production agriculture.  As farms become acquainted and accustomed to it, they want to know what more it can do.  Larry Lee finds out from  Adam Meddaugh with American Drone. Meddaugh says prices on drones have come down, while the capacity and abilities of the technology have gone up.

Chillier weather with a wind for today.  Stu Muck says it may not last long, but it's the first taste of what's ahead weatherwise.  Sunshine returns tomorrow, but the temperatures will remain a little below average.

Next week staff from the White House will be back in Wisconsin to harvest the Christmas tree that will adorn the blue room of the White House.  Pam Jahnke visits with grower, David Chapman, about the family tradition that this has turned into.  Chapman says this will be the family's fifth trip to the nation's capitol with a tree.

Volume is the story for dairy this week.  Mike North, prinicipal with EA Risk in Platteville, joins Pam Jahnke to discuss.  Consumers are mindful of what they're buying for groceries, and that's a direct reflection in dairy prices. The good news according to North is that retail promotions have increased.  That's at the same time that the amount of cheese produced per vat slides lower.
