Congratulations to Kyle and Rachel Zwieg of Ixonia who were named National Outstanding Young Farmers earlier this spring. They are the seventh generation on the family farm that was purchased from the state of Wisconsin in 1856. Kyle and Rachel and their family milk 70 cows using robotics. They also operate 1,500 acres of crop land with autonomous technology. Kyle tells me all about how the adaptation of new technology on the farm in addition to conservation efforts and more, led them to be winners in the National Outstanding Young Farmer program. If you’d like to check out the farm and their technology, plan on going to the Watertown Agri-Business Club Dairy Breakfast in June.
