Wisconsin agriculture is watching policy development in Washington, D.C. with a Farm Bill on the horizon. Senator Tammy Baldwin says she’d focused on efforts to address pressing agricultural challenges and prioritize farmer well-being.

Amidst the current agricultural landscape, one pressing issue commanding attention is the threat of avian flu, posing risks to dairy herds nationwide. While Wisconsin has yet to report any cases, Baldwin says she's remaining vigilant, collaborating closely with federal agencies to safeguard farmers' interests and protect their livelihoods.

Looking ahead to the upcoming Farm Bill, Baldwin is focused on advocating for  initiatives that directly support Wisconsin dairy farmers. Central to these efforts is the reauthorization and expansion of the Dairy Business Innovation Initiative, aimed at providing essential resources to small and medium-sized family dairy farms.

"As we navigate the evolving landscape of American agriculture, it is imperative that we stand united in support of our farmers and their invaluable contributions to our nation's economy and well-being."

She added that, "The Farm Bill is not just about farms; it's about farmers. It's about rural communities. It's about making sure that we have a safe, reliable, and affordable food supply for all Americans."

Brad Rippey is the U.S. Analyst and Drought Monitor Author for the National Agricultural Statistics Service. He says the weather pattern is in a transition period right now moving from El Nino to La Nina. This could mean we could lose moisture over the next month. It also has negative implications for South America's next crop cycle.
