Wisconsin's livestock market has been topsy turvy with incredible prices for any beef cattle. Curt Larson, President and CEO of the Equity Cooperative Livestock Sales Association, talks to Jill Welke about the marketing cycle they've witnessed at sale barns. He also projects what he's anticipating for livestock movement and prices going forward in 2025.

Sunshine returns to the forecast today, according to Stu Muck.

With high egg prices and limited supplies, many people have decided to try and grow their own. That's a great option, but you need to be aware of some of the regulations and laws that are in place to protect other farms and flocks. Stephanie Hoff talks to someone who's lived through a flock depopulation. Scott Schneider is an egg producer out of Lake Mills and he sits on the board of directors for the Wisconsin Livestock Identification Consortium. He knows firsthand how HPAI can damage a commercial flock. He dealt with it in 2015 when his flock was wiped out. This should motivate livestock owners to register and/or renew their premise ID through the Wisconsin Livestock Identification Consortium. For one, it's the law. Second, it's to protect livestock owners from disease outbreaks.

The first crop progress report of the season was released on Monday.  While there's not much to report for Wisconsin farmers, there's ample concern about weather patterns elsewhere. Matthew Bennett, co-founder of AgMarketing.net, says there's a 60% chance that drought could impact national production averages.

John Heinberg, market advisor with Total Farm Marketing, joins Pam Jahnke to discuss the latest trends in tariffs and the impact it's having on the marketplace.  The U.S. remains the place international buyers are going for corn, while South America's harvest continues.
