Monday is the deadline for farmers and land owners to be involved in changing their base acres.  Larry Lee visits with Sandy Chalmers, state executive director of the WI Farm Service Agency offices.  She says there's been few farmers or land owners that wanted to opt out of the update, but communication is key.

Despite a bearish report from the recent ProFarmer Tour, markets are lower this morning.  John Heinberg, market advisor with Total Farm Marketing in West Bend breaks down where traders are focused - and it's not just grain. The announcement by the Trump administration that it's letting in Argentina beef to offset consumer prices infuriated the beef industry.  At the same time, the ProFarmer Crop Tour concluded with low expectations on corn and soybeans.  John says that's not a surprise.
