Commodity groups are still on edge.  They're grasping what tariffs mean globally and they're trying to find ways around the system to keep sales going.  U.S. corn has remained competitive.  That's the good news from Jed Bower, president of the National Corn Growers Association.  Jill Welke does a deeper dive into global challenges as well as domestic obstacles that look to stall out corn growers profit potential.

Improving temperatures help us enjoy our Wednesday, but Stu Muck says there's a slight chance of snow tomorrow morning.

Sales activity remains robust for the Steffes Auction Group.  Ashley Huhn from the Steffes Group tells Pam Jahnke about some new acreage that's coming up for auction in western Wisconsin this month.  He also highlights the online information people can find to help guide sales on their website.  Paid for by Steffes Group.

The American Farm Bureau Federation's reminding consumers that very little of the money they spend on food this weekend(or any weekend) for the Super Bowl ends up back at the farm gate.  Faith Parum, economist for AFBF says only 15.9 cents of every food dollar makes it back to a grower.

Super Bowl weekend is big business for the food industry though.  One staple that's found its way to the top of the menu - chicken wings.  Kiley Allan finds out how the chicken industry prepares for their big day, and what the origin of wings even is!  She speaks with  Tom Super, Senior Vice President of Communications, National Chicken Council.
