MID-WEST FARM REPORT - MADISON

More than $32 million in dairy farmer generated funds are managed by Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin (DFW).  Headquartered in Madison, DFW focuses on enhancing the value of all Wisconsin produced dairy products.

Ultimately the goal is to return those dairy invested dollars back to the farm gate.

Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin connects with farmers and consumers to take them behind the curtain of marketing, analytics, and consumer trends to try and show them the value generated on their behalf.

This program is sponsored by Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin.

If you're wondering what direction the economy is going, or if we're in "good" shape or not, listen in on this conversation with Bill Moore, Chief Risk Officer with Compeer Financial.

Economic policies are being discussed and re-discussed in D.C. and across the nation's Heartland.  Moore is watching inflation and interest rates.  He explains to Pam Jahnke why those two components are critical influences on any farming operation today and for the future.

Moore also talks strategy.  Your 401K may feel different than your farm's operation margins, or the interaction and sales volumes you're seeing at your direct-to-consumer operation.  That's part of the puzzle that Compeer Financial is currently helping clients maneuver through.

The Push-Pull Of Fiscal Policy And Farming - Bill Moore

Growers better be asking themselves some important questions.  After the rain, where's my nitrogen?  After the rain, how far down is that herbicide?  Steve Bailie, Branch Manager with Helena Agri in Monroe, WI, says his team is working on finding those answers right now.

Bailie says a lot depends on HOW much rain farm fields received and whether or not there was a stabilizer in place. How far did the nitrogen move and do you need to come back through with additional nutrients.

The same question applies with herbicides.  Some can tolerate more rain than others.  Bailie's also employing technical staff that can analyze what the plants picked up or missing.  Any questions you pose - the Helena Agri team's ready to help find answers and solutions.
