USDA has announced they are ending the Farmers to Families Food Box program.  It has been responsible for about 150 million of the food boxes distributed across the United States.  Ryan Yonkman with EverAg says that dairy markets were quick to react, but there may be another program being announced soon as a replacement.

NR151 will be getting a lot of attention from the states farmers and agribusiness.  Jeff Lyon, General Manager of FarmFirst Dairy Cooperative says he's reviewed the economic analysis of changes proposed by the Wisconsin DNR and questions its accuracy.  Lyon's says proposed changes will cost much more.
