A new proposal in the state legislature is aimed at the future of Wisconsin farming. The bill would require the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection to launch a farmland link program through its Farm Center. The idea is to connect landowners and retiring farmers with beginning farmers looking for agricultural ground. The bill’s author, Representative Clint Moses, says the idea came from a statewide need to both find farmland and keep that land in agriculture. Moses is vice chair of the Assembly Agriculture Committee.
