It wasn't that long ago when the pandemic upended supply chains, and caused real concern with consumers about how they were going to get their food.  The meat processing was also in turmoil trying to get workers to come into the plants.  That's when Michaela Hoffelmeyer was inspired to find out what meat processor owners could, or would, do to help their employees.  Did they know what employees really wanted or needed?  Did they respond or ignore them?  That lead her onto the kill floor to interview workers and find out for herself.  Her research has been funded by the Dairy Innovation Hub, and she explains what she's published so far to Pam Jahnke.

Dangerous wind chills will keep Wisconsinites on their toes this week.  Stu Muck explains the system sweeping across the state.

Dairy farmers speaking up, and to, other dairy farmers.  That's what Ali Straschinske is doing.  She's a dairy farmer member of the board for Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin.  She tells Charitee Seebecker why she thinks speaking dairy farmer-to-dairy farmer is important.  Paid for by Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin.

Markets are closed for MLK/Inauguration Monday, but finished strong across the board Friday.  Pam Jahnke does a recap.

Students are in the final stage of the Farm and Industry Short Course program on the UW-River Falls campus.  Classes will conclude in March.  Stephanie Hoff finds out about this second class that's engaged in FISC, and what they're interested in, from FISC coordinator, Steve Kelm.
