It's almost graduation for a lot of college students on ag campuses across the state.  Charitee Seebecker visits with UW-Platteville School of Agriculture Director, Tera Montgomery.There's no lack of jobs for graduates, but their priorities are interesting when accepting a position.

A small bar/grill in Oneida County has captured the inaugural Wisconsin's Best Beef Burger title.  Pickle's Bar & Grill in Hazelhurst was announced as the winner, and both the WI Beef Council, and the owner operators are thrilled. 

Lauren Siemers from Kiel grew up on the family dairy but didn't immediately see an attractive opportunity to join the farm. So she decided to investigate the marketing side of the industry.  Siemers will be graduating from UW-Oshkosh with a degree in marketing and she's ready to "sell" Wisconsin agriculture as the next Alice in Dairyland.

Zach Bauer, broke analyst with EverAg, steps in to visit with Pam Jahnke.  The market's still talking about HPAI in dairy and beef testing that's ongoing, but now suppliers and processors are more focused on milk production.  He's also keeping an eye on butter.  It's at near record prices, and depending on milk production - it could stay there.
