Thrips Have Arrived In Wisconsin - Strawberry Growers Watch Out

View descriptionShare

When the heat and humidity returns to Wisconsin next week, plenty of people will turn to air conditioning and fans - including Wisconsin farmers.  Stephanie Hoff visits with Master Electrician, Aaron Robarge, about evaluating your electrical system and considering maintenance before you flip that switch.

Cristelle Geudot, UW-Extension Fruit Entomologist has confirmed reports of thrip in Wisconsin strawberry fields.  This super small insect can decimate a field in a very short time. Geudot explains to Pam Jahnke how the insect arrives in the state.


Memorial weekend offers people the opportunity to get out and camp, ATV, hike - and they might just fall in love with the property they're enjoying.  Purchasing that raw land can be problematic though.  Establishing value and getting financing isn't something a traditional bank likes to handle.  Pam Jahnke visits with Compeer loan officer, Steve Leffew, about questions potential land buyers need to ask.  Sponsored by Compeer Financial.
